Hey folks I recently built my first ar15. It was a home defense setup that I put way too much money in for its use, but I didn't want to spare any expense for my first build. The gun is awesome but I now want to start a precision build and am considering replacing a few expensive parts with budget stuff so that I can use the expensive stuff on my new build. The two main things I want to replace and transfer to the new build are my vltor mud upper and my geissele trigger. My question is regarding re using the upper. Can you over stress the threads on your upper by constantly changing out barrels and torqueing the barrel nut? Once a barrel is installed on a upper should it be left permanent? I'm gonna buy a cheaper 60 dollar upper for my hd gun along with a spikes trigger to match the rest of my spikes lower. Thanks for any info.
