Having owned a good many ARs throught the past 7 years I think ive narrowed down the way I like to do them. Buying every individual component and assembling it myself.
I find this to be the preferred method as I get to chose every little thing that goes into the rifle down to the types of spring pins I choose. Want "this" barrel and "that" receiver? You can do that. Unlike a factory built gun where numbers become a game and lemons slip out I find that a good home assembled AR is levels ahead most off the shelf ARs.
So elaborate if you will gents, do you fancy yourself a shelf rifle or a home built rifle? And why or why not?
