Spikes makes/sells great gear, you will do well with either.

True I just haven't had the time or experince to try a ffl transfer. It's kinda intimidating for the first time

It's easy, Mike. Most gun shops will handle transfers, but if you're just transferring a stripped lower then it would probably be just as cheap to pick up a lower at your local dealer.

Yeah they are all $115
I'm guessing if I did a blem I'd have to buy atleast 2 to get ahead.

One would probably cost you $100 shipped and transferred. That is the maximimum it should cost you. $50 for the lower, $20 shipping, and $30 dollars for the transfer. The shipping cost is a guess, it probably costs less. I don't know what the ffl holders in your area charge for a transfer. My guy charges $20.

You could also get a Noveske Rifleworks N4 GEN3 billet lower for about $320.

I've done some research and I'm thinking forged just for cost saving. Ranier arms has lots of stuff in stock to look at

Brownells has videos on what tools are needed and also how to build an AR. Try this link. http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/lid=11004/learn/Section 3 also has a tool and part list in PDF format that can be printed. Midway also has the same type of vids also. I would not rely on the information on YouTube until you can tell the good from the bad. I saw many vids on YouTube that were very wrong.
