Alright. 2016 is going to be the year that I build my first AR from the bottom up. I have been looking at parts. I already have my eye on a Spikes stripped lower. My question is in building my shopping list is there really that big of a difference in the parts. I know for the trigger group there would be, for all the pins, spring, bolt release, and mag release? Any advice would be greatly welcomed. I am not a firearm newbie have been around them all my life however most of them have always been high end muzzle loaders.
