Help me build my AR - willing to pay!!

Featured Replies

ok guys so I just finished buying all the parts to build my first AR, however I do not know how to put all the parts together. I'm looking for someone who can professionally help me put the gun together, I am obviously willing to pay. I would go to shop but I really want to learn how to put it together. I have spent a good amount of money and so I am looking for someone who has experience building. I live in North Jersey, area code 07022. I willing to travel thats not a problem for me! AR223 - 18inch barrel looking for accuracy! 

If you are even a little mechanically inclined, then you should be able to assemble it yourself. As already mentioned, youtube is your friend. Not difficult at all.

YouTube for 90% of the build, local gunsmith to mount the barrel.

You should be able to do everything, except mount the barrel, with common tools.  Have the smith install the gas block and pin and weld your muzzle device while your at it.

It's best you do any assembly in an uncluttered room, just in case a spring gets sprung and you have to get down on your hands and knees to look for it..

 

I will follow as others have said....watch YouTube. I am not a tinkerer.  I had a lower part kit sit in my desk for a year before I finally put it together.   And you don't need all the fancy tools.  

Punches, some electrical tape, small hammer. Take your time. No rush. 

 

Yes!  Springs will be flying!!  Lol. 

If you're in Bergen County, swing by on a Sunday or Monday and I'll give you a hand. I have 90% of the tools and 100% of the important ones.  No money required.  Just shoot me a PM with your number and I'll drop you a line.  

I used Larry Potterfield's series of videos, as well as this tutorial.

You didn't say if you're building from scratch or using some assembled parts. I used an upper assembly that already had the barrel installed, and I bought a complete BCG. I did everything else. Turned out well and was exactly what I wanted, including the furniture.

That scenario was not tough at all.
