[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1126540, member: 12995"] My best recommendation is to NOT go cheap. Generally, you get what you pay for with AR's and AR parts. A lot of people might argue that claim, but I've seen a lot of cheap AR's/M4's with parts failures, cycling issues, and a lot with accuracy problems and gas port issues from cheaply made barrels made of poor quality barrel steel and in cheap mass-production factories. There are a lot of things you need to research, and learn to look for in product descriptions that will tell you more about what kind of quality was put into the individual components of that particular rifle/upper/lower/barrel so you will know if you are getting cheap junk, or a good quality product at an affordable price. At the very top tier is LWRC. The fit and finish, self-regulating piston system, and design are unmatched by anyone else in the game, in my opinion. I have had my M6A1 since 2009, and it has been a phenomenal and incredibly accurate weapon. I recently finished up a build I started in 2012 on a Spikes mil-spec lower, CMMG LPK, Ergo grip, Rainier Arms 14.5" 5.56 upper with a Noveske KX3 (pinned & welded for legality). I am now waiting on the rest of my parts to arrive for building a 24" 6.5 Grendel upper for it, as well. Next I will be building a .300 BLK upper for it. They will all be sharing the same Spikes lower. :cool: My top 5 would be (in this order): LWRC Rainier Arms Noveske Spikes Tactical Daniel Defense [/QUOTE]
