Re: mounting an ar-15 barrel
There are some tools involved, but nothing like a hydraulic press.
The barrel has a retaining nut.
Specialized tools make it easier, such as a vice block to hold the reciever, you will need pin punches, and there is a multi-wrench that does most of the specialized tasks, and they are about $30.
I would buy an assembly video first, and watch it to see if you can do it with what you have.
You build an AR for the experience, not necessarily due to it being cheaper. I don't think that it is any cheaper any more.
