What buffer should I get does it have anything to do with the bcg I get? How bout staking the castle nut? Should I even be trying to build a ar-15?
Any suggestion on what tools I need to get before starting? Thanks for y'all's help so far.
^This, or a cheap tool specially made for it. Launching springs across the room isn't too much fun. A castle nut wrench will be helpful. Also, get a cheap spring loaded punch from Harbor Freight to stake the castle nut.Get a 2x1/4" clevis pin at the hardware store. Great tool for installing front takedown pin detent.
Just a hint. Clear little children and dogs away when installing springs. Either they will eat them, hop around and make it impossible to find in a shag carpet, or learn a new word daddy used.
