As I always say, for AR15 products, you can't go wrong by going to Fat Boy Tactical. Also, if you can be in Tulsa on Sunday, May 8th, tRidiot is holding the second AR15 build party. I built my first lower at the January one.

Colt 6929 or 6720 for your first. After that, get or build whatever your heart desires.

I have a ruger AR556 and love it. It is hard to beat price wise for what all you get. The thing is very accurate and built solidly. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another. As a matter of fact, I am getting my wife her own an I will be getting another ruger. Picked mine up from sooner guns and gold a couple of months ago.

I'm getting ready to build/put together my second AR myself, this one will be for my daughter. Other than SSP and 7 Element Firearms, where else in OKC area sells stuff like lower receivers, LPK's, buffer tubes, etc? The one I put together last year was built on a complete poly lower I bought locally, then I ordered the upper receiver/BCG/CH kit from Fat Boy Tactical, and pieced the rest together locally other than barrel (these are wildcats). Thanks

Mikes firearms in moore. Hes a member here and really knowledgeable about these guns. I bought a buffer and spring from him for an AR308 and felt like the prices were plenty fair.

 

[clintbailey]

Thanks for that! I hardly ever go to OKC, so still trying to figure out the local gettin places...and this AR stuff is still new to me for sure! I've dealt with SSP for several things, but not AR stuff yet, and have a coworker that has been to 7 Element some, which is how I heard about them. I'll try to look up Mike's next time I get to OKC area!

Did you mean to say "Marks Firearms"?

 

[zghorner]

Sure did, good catch.
