So I've decided to build my AR upper. I've done some research but want to make sure I end up ordering the correct thing. So far, from what I've found, I will need a stripped receiver, upper receiver parts kit, bolt carrier assembly, free float handguard, gas block, gas line and barrel. What am I missing? Also, is there anything I need to be aware of before ordering.. to make sure everything is going to fit? I know the gas line and such needs to be the correct length. I'm going with a 20" or 24" stainless barrel. Are there any brands to stay away from? What barrels would y'all recommend for the $250 range? I'm looking to stay under $600 as best I can for this upper build.
Sorry for all the questions but I'm need of some detailed information. This upper will be going on my Double Star lower assembled with a Stag lpk. I don't want to go cheap on everything but I obviously can't afford top-of-the-line. Just want the ultimate varmint rifle.
