Hey folks.
So I'm planning my first AR build and I have a few questions. This is going to be somewhat of a budget rifle and my only real needs are a 20" barrel and a flat top. My first question is how close will a single position a2 stock fit an a3 receiver? I've heard there might be some grinding but was wondering how much is needed or if there is certain brands that may fit better.
Also, I have planned to buy a stock assembly, stripped lower receiver and receiver kit for the lower. Then was looking at buying an upper already complete. But I feel like I'm missing some parts. What else is needed to complete the rifle?
Sorry for the ignorance.. Semi-automatic rifles are not something I know too well.
Any advice or tips are also welcome. I'm looking to stay around the $700 mark for this build.
