[QUOTE="Apex Custom Rifles, post: 661366, member: 19307"] You can go ether way. Some guys like you to buy their stuff, but usually don't care if you supply your own parts if they are of the quality that you expect the rifle to be. If price wise it ends up being the same, it usually helps out the smith by buying from them because they can make a few bucks and they will be happy to help you out in the decision process if you are on the fence about something. However, don't always go with what the smith has, just because they have one. I've seen some guys sell stocks, barrels.. etc just to get rid of them. If it's a good smith, there should be no worries there though. I would do my research figure out what will work best for you and get what you want. If your smith has it good, if not you can ether get it or they can get it for you. Ether way everyone wins. The nice part about buying from a smith is they usually don't charge you until the entire project is done. In this case, you are not sitting on $1,000 in parts that you may not see for a year. Some people are uneasy with that feeling. I've done it both ways, ether way is correct. [/QUOTE]
