Just curious if anyone has build an AR upper from scratch?

 

And and DO's and DONT's.

 

Thanks in advance.

Easy enough if you have the proper tools and a correct mix of components

Otherwise, just buy a built and test-fired complete upper

Following because Im curious also.

Based on my reading on the around the web, it seems easy enough.

 

But there is just no replacement for hands on experience.

 

So, it seems that as long as you have all the correct mix of component, correct torque tension, blah blah blah... after assembled, it should just work .... correct?

 

I'm asking because I bought a SIG516 and it does not like WOLF ammo... because WOLF doesn't load to NATO spec and it doesn't generate enough pressure and have tons of FTF.

 

I'm hoping to build and DI AR instead from ground up... and hand pick the parts.... so I don't have to heard it from the wife... "this thing sucks.... why do i have to rack every round?!" ..
