[QUOTE="bettingpython, post: 1755224, member: 4307"] There is no headspacing during assembly for AR's. Headspace is set by the barrel manufacturer when they mate the barrel to the barrel extension. The wrench you are talking about is an armorers wrench, lots of people here have them and will lone you one, it does more than just the buffer tube, they run about $25. At current prices you can build a solid rifle for $1600 The top rifle I just finished for my wife, the bottom rifle I built a few years ago when parts were still over priced, either one minus the optic and sights can be done around your budget price, I think the one with FDE furniture was right around $1750 including the optic(just a bushnell but it's been solid), and a single point sling not in the picture. The one for my wife started as a stripped receiver set from MEGA, the lower parts kit and ergo grip are rock river armory, the stock is an ace skeleton, barrel is a chrome lined daniel defense 1/7 twist, troy industries medieval muzzle brake, spikes enhanced bolt bolt carrier group, yankee hill quad rail, etc. I took so long building it piece by piece I don't remember what I had in it but it's less than 1600. The bottom rifle started as a stock cmmg upper and a stripped roggio arsenal lower I built.
