Re: What do you think of m AR15 build?

have you looked at picking up a completed upper, and building the lower yourself? I did this the first couple of builds I did and I was happy doing it that way. As I learned more, I built the uppers.

You can build a great rifle for under $900. I have used JSE quite a bit.

You did...and I edited my comment before your reply. I think the remark about not wanting a gas block threw GigAg and I off a bit.

You won't be shooting semi-auto if you do not have a gas block. It's what cycles the gun.

If you mean you don't want the large front sight base and gas block sticking out from the front, then you need to look for a low profile gas block.

ETRA: Looks like I missed it in your parts list...you have the low-pro GB there already.
