Hello all. I've been browsing your forum and Brownell's video guides and I'm tempted to build an AR-15 from the ground up.
One problem: the video attempts to steer me into purchasing a collection of tools that could easily exceed the price of the rifle itself. As my name suggests this just won't do. I have gotten a Winchester 1300 apart and back together again with a single screwdriver and a hard surface but this looks completely different.
Folks, what's the bare-knuckled minimum set of tools needed to build one of these things? Specifically do I need a vice and an action block to get the barrel on?
