AR Build Party

[kricket37]

Just curious if INGO was going todo another build party this spring? I had a lot of fun last year and learned the basics.

Short answer: no one has taken the reins on organizing one. The folks who have done it in the past have their hands full with other events right now. But that doesn't mean someone else can't get one going.

I have ZERO interest in organizing such a thing, but if someone sets one up for a Sunday in the greater Indy area, I'd be happy to show up and lend my tools and talent.

I would be willing to set something up in my shop if you guys would be willing to help out as far as setting up, etc. I have wanted to do one of these for awhile and if I had assistance from a few of you that have done these before I would love to put something together. Let me know

I have a major development brewing that would free me up to devote more time to such things. If that materializes this week, I will start getting one planned...I promise....

We can always have more than one. You can never build enough Ar15's

This is true...

Major Develpoment???

Whatever it is I am down for building some AR's.

@IndyVet I don't live to far from your shop. If you decide to setup a build I would help out. I have built three in the past year and have the tools for building lowers. not familiar with building uppers, bought mine pre-built.

Goes for any other parties, I would help out.

Would it be impractical to participate in one of these if the AR you are wanting to build is not in .223/5.56? Specifically I have an upper in 6.5 Grendel or .264 LBC that I am dreaming about buying parts piece meal for (barrel, float tube, upper receiver, BCG...) and putting together.

I'll be happy to assist if you want! I built my Grendel upper last year and she runs great.

 

[Indyvet]

I am all for this. Not sure who or how to get ahold of someone that has done one of these. Someone get in contact with me if you want and we can figure it out. I don't want to throw something together and have it turn out bad. I'd be happy to host something.

 

[shootinghoosier]

I would be interested in participating in something like this, but I don't know enough about a parts list to be confident in having everything needed on the build date. I've looked at various sites and my eyes blur with all the parts kits that are available. Can anyone put together a good list for those of us who are not really familiar with AR builds?

 

[ZbornacSVT]

Essentials are:

Lower - lower parts kit, lower receiver, stock, buffer tube, buffer, spring
Upper - Upper receiver, upper parts kit, bolt carrier group, gas tube, forearm, barrel, charging handle, gas block

add ons/upgrades - trigger group, pistol grip, foregrip, optics/buis, muzzle devices, mags, ambi levers, free float forearm, sling etc.

PM me and I would be happy to help.

If someone does one in the Fort Wayne area...I would love to come hang out. Thinking about an AR and would love to learn.
