I am not sure what is the point of saving a few hundred on an AR when you are going to be shooting 5.56 ammo through it anyway.
If it was for a 22LR plinker I would say, yes go and use some lower cost parts but otherwise you got yourself a real bad investment.
Maybe in a backpacking, light barrel, really low shooting type of configuration. I am not sure.
The heart of the AR is a good BCG with a good barrel and a simple yet nice up to spec T6 receiver.
Therefore I think it is best to maybe go slower and save the money for a little better quality on each of the key components.
