Cheapest AR build possible

[plainsbilly]

Just as the title says what is the cheapest possible all new parts complete build. If possible post a link to your kit or assembly of choice. I'm looking to build a backup/loaner gun not looking for a match or race gun build just a decent standard style AR. Please no posts about buying quality or you get what you pay for. Have fun and lets see if we can pick and choose and get it under $400 LOL

Whatever the cheapest complete kit is here:

Plus a $60 lower wherever you can find one.

+1 for Del-Ton

For $465 you get a complete 16" or 20" kit, and the upper comes assembled.

Darn AIM Surplus is out of their $60 lowers...should've grabbed one.

Thanks hadnt thought of del-ton. Any other cheapies out there

Cheaper than $456? I dont think so, and I am one cheap SOB so I have been looking. I think I may have seen some for $400 in the Shotgun News, but I find most of those outfits to be sketchy.

Model 1 Sales has a bazillion rifle kit but Del-Ton beats them by about $30.

I've dealt with Del-Ton in the past and they have always been top-notch.

Nothing against del-ton but, ive built two ARs from modle one kits and have run 100rnds thru one and 400rnds thru the other without a malfunction. Ive heard enough good things about del-ton where I wouldnt be skeerd to buy either from either one.

Add a Noveske Lower! Noone will know it's a Stag. LOL.

I seriously doubt you can get one for under $400. My guess is that it shouldn't be too hard to get one for $450 or $500 though.

My two AIM surplus $59 lowers arrived yesterday....

My problem is what two uppers I want to build...

I am thinking 9mm or .204 ruger or 300 whisper or a dissy.
For a dissy I want a 16" 1:7 twist barrel with a mid length gas system...hbar with lowprofile gas block and a free floating handguard.... Probably the same set up for the others except for the .204 where I'd get a 20" bull barrel. If I go 9mm I will later get a dedicated lower for it.
