[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 2431642, member: 9374"] Haha. Yeah, I know. Let's see... bought my first one in 2011, had someone here build it for me. It had a problem a couple times from an incorrectly-installed hammer spring, let the trigger pin walk out. While having someone show me how to fix that issue, I realized it wasn't so bad. I picked up I think 5 Spikes lowers, maybe from you, Mark? I sat on 'em through most of 2012, then in '13 decided to start building. Picked up parts as I found them cheaply, since the craze was on in full force... managed to build 5 or 6 more rifles in '13, a couple for friends. Then I started collecting lowers, since they got so cheap. Bought my 6.8 fully assembled, but it'll get torn down soon. Now, in '14, I'm working on building the 11 lower receivers I picked up into complete rifles. One is for a friend, the other 10 are just for me. :D I want an arsenal for when the zombies come... or whomever. ;) I considered getting my FFL and building to sell... not to make money, but just because it would let me buy more and build. I'm addicted. I absolutely LOVE building a rifle for someone else as much as myself. To see that look in their eye when you hand it to them? Damn... friend of mine's 13 y/o son I built one for, I think he was on that thing like a Playboy magazine. Now I'm building her one. lol I've put the FFL idea to the side for now, just because I have too many other things going on with changing jobs and such. God, don't I wish! I'd LIVE in that store and give my house up! ;) Don't we all... lol. Some great vendors we've got on here. [/QUOTE]
