I can explain..but pics help more

Out of tolerance headspace can allow the brass to stretch too far when fired..it ruptures and blows hot gas/metal back in your face...worse case scenario it blows your chamber to pieces!
This is why you see those ruptured case extractors out there
Sweet!!!
Guy gave me some really cool links!

Re: Sub $600 AR kit
Yes..by what the kit shows it comes with everything..including the guts of the lower
I looked online and I saw DPMS stripped receivers going for as low as $115, a local gunshow you might be able to find a decent stripped lower for less and skip the shipping.
Cool thing is..without the lower..they can ship the entire shebang to you no problems (no FFL required)
I just have never built an AR, don't know what kinda tools you would need, headspacing, yadda yadda like that
I have intimate knowledge of the M-16A2, so I KNOW they work, are solid and can outshoot any shooter...I just havent ever stripped one down to the armorer level

Re: Sub $600 AR kit
Has anyone ever built an AR...how hard is it?
And for once and for all can someone explain to me in black and white what effect does the twist rate actually do?
Some people say the 1/9 cant stabilize heavier rounds?!?
I would LOVE to build my own black rifle but don't know where to start

Sub $600 AR kit
Sub $600 AR kit
http://www.del-ton.com/AR_15_Rifle_Kits_s/1.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Only thing I don't like is the fact many of the barrels are 1/9 twist instead of 1/8 or even 1/7
The 16" M4 one has the option to change to a 1/7 Chrome bore...but not any of the rest
Get that kit..go to a gun show and get a good $100 lower and POW!!!
