Respond below also.
Thank you for the response.How many ARs do you own?
Do you own an AR10?
Ever shot one?
Do you have any AR tools?
Do you plan on buying any?
Buying a complete upper and a complete lower is not a build. I say this because so many people come here with "build" questions resulting in " which complete upper and complete lower should I buy for my AR build?" Lol
I normally suggest, if it's your first or second AR, learn to customize that first. That way, you'll at least learn a little bit about how things go together.
Sorry, couldn't really vote in your poll. I didn't want to send you down the wrong trail.
Yep. If you're not lapping your barrel to the upper, not drilling for gas block pins, nor trying experimenting to find the optimal spring/buffer combination, you're not building, you're assembling.Buying a complete upper and a complete lower is not a build.

Though lowers are more of a pain to build, uppers are the 'money' end of the build. The most important part.I assembled my 1st with a stripped lower and a complete upper after that when I get my 10 I will buy a lower that at least has the bolt catch installed and a complete trigger guard those pins were a MFing pain for me, I didn't mind putting the buffer tube on losing the detent pin once or twice and having to throw away one of the takedown springs because I jammed it the 1st time and no I won't build the upper from scratch I will still buy a complete upper and slap it on the lower.
That's for sure, that's where the explosions happen.Though lowers are more of a pain to build, uppers are the 'money' end of the build. The most important part.
YepI usually build my AR15’s, only bought one (my first) as a complete rifle. I do not own an AR10 but that is one I’d consider buying as a rifle as I here AR10 parts do not always mix and work together well.
