This was my first privately owned AR-15(M4) custom build.

It's amazing what you can do with google, youtube, and some basic tools. If you are afraid of building your own don't be. I thought building my own would have been difficult when actually it was really easy. You just have to do it!!! Seriously if you can change a tire you can build yourself and save a little cash while having fun. To be honest even if I didn't save money I would prefer to build myself as I did have a good time taking things slowly and having a good time knowing I built it :)

The lower took about 30-45 minutes to build and I didn't have the right tools (I was using an Allen wrench as a punch HA-HA hey it worked okay until my punch set came in for my next build) The hardest part was the bolt catch and trying to be careful not to scratch the new finish. To think I thought the trigger and springs would be the hardest HA-HA that was probably the easiest too about 30 seconds to do if that!!!

Thank you to:

www.parallaxtactical.com (Aaron) for building the upper in shop using all my specs and within 30 minutes had it together for free. (I would've done it but I will not pass up a free professional build for anything now-a-days)

  • Love that upper receiver just can't find it anywhere...waiting for one then staring a grendel build...great looking rig btw
