Check out the following sites:www.model1sales.comwww.kb-mfg.com/http://www.del-ton.com/http://www.blackthorneproducts.com/http://www.mapartsinc.com/They have complete AR kits, everything minus the stripped lower, for around $500. I think that's the best deal around.

If you value your health, please go anywhere but blackthorne. Their lack of QC has actually injured people in the past.

Got mine from palmetto state armory, can't remember the exact price but for the LPK and Magpul stock it was under 150 if I'm not mistaken.

You know what?? If I had to do it all over again, I would buy the parts seperately such as the grip, trigger mechanism, bolt release lever etc..I upgraded and got a whole lot of extra crap now...

Spikes has the nickle boron coated parts available now too. DPMS kits have always worked well. Rock river parts kit w/ 2-stage trigger is also pretty good.

check out www.ar-15.com they have a good list of places to buy. I am building my ar right now. I am keeping away from the kits, I want a custom to me gun. kits are really just to basic. To change them without looking to see what you like is a hard choice.
