Hi all, I ended up going with the CZ 75 B/D police. Thanks for all the advice.

Good morning all, it was a tough call with all the great choices but I ended up going with the CZ 75 B/D police.

I'm thinking around $600

Hi guys, thanks for all the great wisdom and advice, I just ordered a mil spec buffer tube and stock. I think all that's left is trying to figure out what complete upper to get.

Did you call?

Thanks guys, could you recommend a good mil spec stock and buffer tube? I see that there are some that are sold together. Wow their are so many different options, I'm really trying to do this right the first time so I don't regret any purchases. Thanks again.

Today I ordered a colt LPK with an ALG ACT Fire control group. Here we go its begining.

Vlad would you be able to recommend 3-4 different complete uppers for me somewhere around the $500-$600 range.thank you

Great advice, thank you. What I do know so far is I want to build for target and self defense, 1:9 twist as all my ammo is 55 gr. I think 14.5 with a pinned muzzle brake to make it 16"

Good morning all, yesterday I picked up a Anderson lower to start my build, so now the research begins. I was thinking about purchasing a complete upper (not for competition) any recommendations would be appreciated. How's rock river, PSA, etc.... Should I get chrome lined, stainless? 14.5"or 16" and so on and so on. Thanks again everyone , for all the advice, its all the great member here that advised me to build and not buy and I'm glad that I didn't puss out and take the easy way out.

today I visited Steve for a few goodies, this guy is so AWESOME. he will always be my go to and the only guy I will ever recommend. Thanks for the great experience and conversation. -J-

Hi all. after much back and forth, I've decided to take everyone's suggestions and build a lower. I have a couple questions I am hoping to get answered. Am I better off with a Anderson or spikes lower? And who makes the best complete lower parts kit, and where can I purchase it? Thanks all.

I don't take that as an insult at all, it actually makes a lot of sense thank you

if I was to purchase a new complete lower what would you suggest? Do you think the delton upper is good? It's not that I dislike the gun I just want something proven to be reliable.

would they extra $200 buy you a much better rifle with the SR-556? These are the questions I have and look for advice from you guys that have the experience that I lack. Thanks everyone.

It has not malfunctioned, I have only a few hundred rounds through it, I always had reservations because when I first bought it I asked people on here their opinions about it and there was a lot of talk about it being just ok, good for plinking and that's it, so when I saw the ruger sr-556 go on sale at tanners I thought maybe this would be a big improvement over what I have now. The price for the ruger is $799 I wouldn't want to spend anything more then that.

Vlad that is a beauty !

it shoots well, I just never new whether it was a really reliable gun. I always questioned that aspect.

i just always had this feeling, that if I was using a different upper then the lower, and The upper and lower are entry level it wasn't a great rifle, of course this can all be in my head. Do you think the ruger is a much more improved rifle then what I'm using?

I been wanting to upgrade the AR I currently have, it's a delton upper with a new frontier lower tanners in PA is offering the Ruger sr556 for $799. So I was thinking that the price was good. I just don't know a ton about them.

Are the piston driven AR's reliable? I own a a Delton upper with a new frontier lower. I was thinking of replacing it with the ruger sr-556.I am not sure if this would be a big upgrade from what I'm using now, when I research about the two different types I get a ton of pros and cons about them.it's confusing.

I was wondering if anyone knows if the piston driven Ruger SRE-556 is a reliable rifle? I can purchase it new for $799. And was also wondering if this is a great deal? Right now I have a Delton upper with a New Frontier lower. Thanks all

Hi all I was hoping I could get some opinions on the Ruger sr556. Thank you

Dave, sorry to hear that. I was always under the impression that fanwwod was really fast. I'm in scotch plains and the first 2 times I applied it was around 2 1/2 -3 Months then the last time was about 1.5 months. I can't see why a phone call wouldn't hurt.
