Except you already bought once you dumb faggot. Should've went with the normal milspec trigger, if you cant shoot proper with that you have no business shooting.

good parts I assume

I should have said I have my list complete not that I spent the 600 yet.
>>
>>34262380
I'm clearly not communicating well. I like the single stage flat trigger and I thought the flat was a good luck so I figure that for this build this is what I should go with. Buy once cry once.

But nothing is bought yet, I'm just trying to get ideas and bounce them off people who know more than me. The big issue is that I'm trying to find an Ambi lower that is cheap and AP offered the cheapest ambi I could find.
>>
>>34262344
Ambi lowers mean jack shit. You can handle all the buttons and knobs just fine with either hand.
t. lefty who bought an ambi upper (ARAK-21) and ambi lower.
Really the most important thing is to be able to eject out the left side, and if you're on range you should honestly just put a bag over the ejection port.

You seriously don't know what you are doing.

>>34262344
>CMC flat trigger
Oh for fuck's sake
>>
A good torque wrench isn't cheap, so unless you already own one, you would factor that cost into a stripped upper.
>>
>>34262448

>>34262283
If you don't have the tools to properly do the upper, just buy one. When you build your own you'll have to worry about head spacing too.
>>
>>34262344
Comrade seriously dont do this.i put like 150 dollars in my lower, and that includes the lower itself.Granted if i were to do it over again i would get a better trigger.
>>
>>34262349
Can I have your old Tigger in that case I'll give you like $50.

And I am very serious.

>All that bullshit in babby's first ar build

Just buy a fifty dollar lower and a 50 dollar lpk (lower parts kit) ffs. Put that together, lose a spring bitcg cry and whine till you buy an extra and them find the lost spring and pin the day after the new one arrives abd get a complete upper and then over time pick up your fancier shit and swap out the basic stuff.

Ffs 600 dollars should get you a decent babby's first ar not the lower only.

Fuck you guys I'll just get a PSA or a CMMG or some shit.

I genuinely don't understand the guys beefing in this thread about the price. If he pays it now he'll never have to fuck with it again.
