New Gun Enthusiast Exploring ARs

[rg115]

Just started getting into ARs and shooting more in general. It's been an interesting journey so far. Figured I'd join to learn from all of you and share whatever I can along the way. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences.

Welcome to GS.

Looking forward to your build thread!!

Good to hear. Welcome. New guns are like Lay's potatoes chips. Just can't eat one.

Don't waste money on the lower; anything that says "MILSPEC" is fine, it's those hand-tuned trigger groups that will cost you, and if you know your way around an Arkansas oilstone and
buffing wheel, not even that. the upper is where you want to put your money! get a nickel-boron-coated bolt and carrier and a quality stainless or nitride barrel. Chrome is for lazy guys who never clean their guns and don't mind a MOA here and there.
