i knew you could buy blanks and partially done lower receivers but i had no idea what you had to do to finish it,
i thought you had to run your own machine shop or something but apparently there are jigs

impressive
what you are doing is really cool!

Another of my "past" toys. This one I built myself. The lower was an RRA and I built it up from there. Upper was a LaRue with a Larue rail and Noveske 10.5" bbl.. Troy sights and Noveske Muzzle Break. All crazy expensive parts... very very good gun and shot super! Ah.,.... the memories!

Am I still the only one with a Lefty AR?

I am cross eye dominant and shooting the AR is the only time I feel dis-advantaged. I don't like the idea of my eye being on the ejection port side of the weapon in case of a case rupture. I don't have any problem running the rifle, just the nagging fear of some brass hitting my eyeball.

One day I would like a lefty Stag but for now it's not in the budget.

Get some hot brass down the back of your neck, one time, and you'll find the cash for a lefty. I know folks say the case deflector will prevent this, but not always. Oh, and it will leave a mark.

I built this clone of the slickside M16 a couple years ago.......also built up an A1 clone, both from surplus uppers and NoDak Spud lowers.

All I need is an A2 repro and an M-Forgery clone set up like the one I used in the Army and I'm set for AR's. I hardly shoot the two M16's but I "needed" them since I like Vietnam era weapons.

After wanting an AR for a long time, I did some research and went with Spike's Tactical. This is my Spike's mid-length. The fit, finish, controls, and accuracy are excellent. I highly recommend them. Enjoy.

That's what shooting glasses are for. Buy 'em, use 'em. Always! :wink:
