I only just recently got the black rifle sickness. Only issue is I found I like the vintage stuff/A1/A2 rifles. I'm not a big fan of the flat tops or anything with accessories like the kitchen sink.
Anyways I wanted to build my lower so I purchased a cheap one from my local shop and a parts kit. After looking up a few tutorials on how to it went together w/o an issue...just took my time. It was actually pretty simple once you figured out what springs went where.
Now the upper I bought complete. It's a armalite 20" chrome lined 1/9. I'm actually very happy with it. The fit to my lower was a little loose but I made a little spacer and she is nice and tight now.
I have since ordered a real armalite lower to go with this rifle just so I can have one nice matching rifle that will stay together. I have since bought another uppper to go with the lower on the rifle now and it will be my "mix and match" lower.
