Now that i have all my parts and pieces I have no clue where to find good instructions. I have used my google Fu and have found several how to vids and such , but figured I would check with the local guys to see what you recommend. Y'all have been great with the suggestions and help!
I take it you are talking about an AR?Quote:

I knew this was coming. Ive seen it before.
ARs are in fact NOT "LEGO SETS".
I always recommend a first AR owner to get a complete rifle and shoot for a year to get familiar with a rifle before a build.
Watch the videos, and take it slow man.
What is it specifically you need help with.
If I can recommend you one thing, take it to someone experienced or a gunsmith. This is not a toy youre talking about, Do you know what the pressures are in the chamber that youre working on?
Not to mention its an inch away from your face. If you take ANY advice at all, take it to a PROFFESIONAL
I used the ones on ar15.com under guides
I know this is the AR specific area but ya never know. [Coffee]Quote:

While holding part B in place securely on part A place assembly into place on part C and slide part D into place. Use care to ensure proper tension on part B.
Insert part E into part C. Lightly lubricate the threads on part C and screw on part F, making sure to allow for clearance of part G which at this time should be attached to part H. If there is not clearance for part G lightly snug part F, using care to not over torque. Place part H over part E and slide towards the junction of part C and E. Ensure alignment of part G with the hole in part F and alignment of E and C. Ensure vertical alignment of part H relative to part C. While holding part H securely drill 2 holes to intersect the junction of part E and H. Taper ream holes 2 each from left to right taking care not to ream too deeply. Drive part I (2 each) to seat firmly in taper holes intersecting parts H and E. Using the appropriate fixture screw part J onto part E with part K facing tapered side towards part C securely into place ensuring alignment of the center slot in part J vertically.
Insert the assembly of part L and M into the hole on the right rear of part C and while holding the assembly of part L and M compressed drive part N into place.
That completes assembly of component #1.
Let me know when your are ready to assemble component 2
Easy as pie.[Coffee]
Shit that hurt to type.....................................
OP- check your PM's-
Wait, I'm confused. Bert, was that for an AR15, AR10, or an AR57. Does that include the upper, lower and middle?
While you are at it, could you check the headspace on my plasma rifle?
All in fun. [ROFL1]
Holy shit you building a space shuttle?[ROFL1]Quote:

Watch all the videos, then give it a try. Either way, when you are finished, take it to Bert ( he is pretty close to Westminster) or Rob down at Bowers. They will fix or safety anything you have done incorrectly and probably provide half a semester of valuable information along the way.Quote:

Yeah... but you forgot to mention that for the "Lefty Version", all of that is done in "mirror-image" and in reverse order. [LOL]Quote:
