Build one man. It's super easy. I just built my first and might have 700 in it with optics and case.
Get a stripped lower and buy a complete kit from del-ton. Takes an hour taking your sweet time to build. Now that I've done one I could probably do it in 15 min07 f250-family truckster

Colt Defense makes products for the Military and Law Enforcement, while Colt's MFG makes stuff for us regular folks. IMO, the guns coming from Colt right now are some of the best they have ever made (most people on the Colt forms agree). Their like of 1911s are stellar and innovative, and the modern single action army guns are excellent revolvers. Their rifles are also still the best off the shelf DI ar15 variant for under $1500 IMO. Also they have this rig that can shoot 308 and 223 with the same lower-
Pretty cool IMO.Originally posted by lincolnboyAfter watching Games of Thrones, makes me glad i was not born in those years.

We have a lot of gracious members here willing to help you every step of the way. I pieced mine together and spent just over $500. I haven't gotten mine put together yet, I'm unfortunately outside of the metro-plex and don't make it over often enough. I'm trying to convince myself to just buy the tools and do it myselfOriginally posted by LeahBest balls I've had in my mouth in a while.

Originally posted by cobra93teal View PostNo i have not....just been around a lot of ARs and i am not saying Colts are bad but you are not getting a better rifle just because it costs more money. Now dont get me wrong...i have plenty of expensive toys just because i wanted them....just saying i think colt is riding on name and less quality then they used to. Like i said..in no way are they BAD...but for most of the civilian use that almost everyone here will be using them for people should buy a nice rifle for 500 to 700 less and buy ammo to practice with.
