Starter Builds - MMR226 - 06-11-2014

Im looking to build an AR15 but i dont want to spend 1k right off the bat doing it. I want to make it my own. does anyone have suggestions for parts starting from the ground up? i would be using it just for plinkin and just having fun. Im leaning towards one of those blemished Palmetto State Armory lowers. Im all ears guys!

I have a blem palmetto lower waiting to build. For 60 bucks you cant go wrong. Building one allows you to make a great custom rifle for way cheaper than buying a built one. Im thinking about making my next one a pistol build.

Maybe you boys can help us find part to start selling at www.RedDotArms.com to help the rest of our neighbors.

Any time!

sounds like a good idea to me!

Some more magpul stuff would be a great start!

hmmm... Are those Blemished Palmetto receivers good quality for guns that you plan to shoot? Maybe a half dozen of them would be a good idea just in case. Seems like you could place a bet on the 2016 election that way.

I usually only shoot them, but it might be a good project to build one! I might learn a lot.

The blemished lowers are only imperfections in the finish, not even noticeable but are guaranteed to be 100% functional. They aren't weak.


RE: Starter Builds - mikereddot - 08-03-2014

Everybody that has gotten any where totally happy with them.


RE: Starter Builds - BelieveIn308 - 08-04-2014

Mike, right now these are on special there for 49.99 each. If I order 6 of them do I need to pay the FFL fee 6 times? Or is it once per transaction?


RE: Starter Builds - RJDSRT - 08-04-2014

It is $25 for the first one, $15 per additional in that shipment
