I'm new to ARs too. Just bought and put together a complete kit from PSA. My first AR. I'd agree with Stick, although our experience levels are at opposite ends of the spectrum. Get a good kit, stripped lower and build it how you want it. Options are pretty much endless, which is half the fun. You'll save $$ vs buying complete. Putting it together is easy and fun too. I'm already thinking about number 2 (and 3 and 4....)

The Peezer 18" S/S Wylde Rifle Gas FF Kit,is simply a fhuqking STEAL for 379 Clams.
Add 'Lever fueled 75 Hornie BTHP's at 2800fps+ and dots literally connect themselves.
hint...............(grin)

Oh and don't ignore the pistol option... depending on what you want to use it for, the "pistol braces" can make for a versatile little gun. Love mine so far.

It took about an hour, only because it was my first rodeo and I was building it on my work desk, not at home. I'm quite sure if I had another in front of me right now it would take about 20 minutes. Looking forward to some trigger time with it this week. ![[Linked Image]](https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1024x768q90/921/HrtN43.jpg)

What did you use to install, torque, and stake the castle nut? Well I built it on my work desk, but I brought a few tools from home. A couple of punch pins, hammer, set punch, armorers wrench, razor blade, and a hammer. I couldn't wait to get it home to put it together so I brought enough tools to get it done.

No. Stay traditional on the upper.

My Son brought home his new 'black rifle' last week, We've been getting it setup with optics and such......
These fricken things are addicting, Damn it anyway.......
Now I want one, and I have no clue.
Tell me what I want, whats good, what to avoid, yada yada....
I'm a lefty, so keep that in mind..
TIA. Buildja' a PSA 18" Rifle Gas FF Kit. LOTSA rifle for the very modest jingle and you'll gain the familiarity with what makes things tick. 18" PSA Rifle Kit RINK For $379.99Slap a CMC flatty trigger in it and you are there. Hint............. Not bad advise for the money.
