Alright I’m going to put myself out here,
I didn’t want to sound like I haven’t done some research before asking this question so here we go. I hope I placed this thread in the right place GI3
I’ve just ordered a bunch of parts to include a receiver, barrel, and bolt. I really like building things and I’ve assembled several AR15’s in the past. Now, I’ve read Walt Kuleck’s M14 Complete assembly guide over and over again concerning barrel timing, parts inspection, Bolt Lapping, head spacing and how absolutely critical it is. I’ve also dug through the wealth of knowledge this forum has to offer.
I understand that I’ll need to spend some money on tools especially for performing this build, and I’ll be taking a financial risk if mistakes are made.
So here’s the question. Is it still a bad idea for me to give this a try?
I’ve done some research here and online and can’t seem to find a definitive answer.
If someone could give me some guidance that’d be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
