    Default Budget build AR

    Between the 4th of July and Labor Day sales I acquired all the necessary parts to build another AR, when completed I’ll have a complete Geissele URG-I for less than the cost of a complete Geissele URG-I upper. It pays to shop around and wait for sales sometimes

    Today was a good day!

    Clickbait title! That's no budget build!
    LOL!

    That said, it's certainly to your advantage to build things the way you want them. Saving money is my middle name - all my guns evolved from boxes of parts bought at bargain prices!

    I got everything for 30-50% off normal prices, which is pretty good considering what this stuff costs. I picked up the complete upper in as new condition for 900.00 shipped and they cost 1450.00 normally. While not a budget for some, I consider this a budget for what it is.

    I was expecting a lower carved out of a piece of Top Choice Prime 2x6" and a 3D printed upper.
