Nice looking AR man.
I've never been a big AR guy myself. I own one simply because I feel it's patriotic and I enjoy firearms, but I'm an AK guy at heart. ARs are overly complicated for me, annoying to clean. I dislike all the "tacticool" stuff too, but clearly yours is purpose built, not for a mall ninja.

Good looking gun. I only wish mine wasnt an ss barrel, and that it was threaded so I could throw on a muzzle brake/flash hider.

Spray paint it after you get it threaded haha..
my buddy bought a cheap gun case from a store and threw his Rifle in it when he got home and put it in his closet.
He come over on a friday night cause we were loading ammo and getting ready for a coyote hunt the next day. He took his rifle out and ever steel part was rusted. The foam in the case was wet and he didnt check it. Out comes some sand paper and spray paint. Now is purdy flat black with other dark colors mixed in for a camo job.
I bought an AK years ago for cheap, i think it was $250, Shot it some but didnt really like anything about it. Ive got something like 7 AR15s and ive got one that ill always pick up for hunting or just riding around.

I've got everything for my new build (actually building it for someone) minus hand guard. Took like 2 weeks to get everything, and was still under $1500. It's going to look GREAT.

I've never shot an ak but they just don't seem accurate. I don't like anything that's not accurate. Just wasting ammo at that point.
There is also arpartsfinder.com for ar parts, obviously.

Well...
CMT billet lower
Palmetto lpk with upgraded magpul gear
Troy Vtac 15" handguard
WMD bolt carrier group
BCM mod3 charging handle
AP upper
ARP .223 wylde barrel
black river or addax tactical flash hider
$1500 will be with nice buis too
I think right now I am at the $1100-$1200 mark, I have to crunch the numbers once I have all the invoices.

I've been keeping a eye on that site also. It's good to see parts and prices coming back to reality. Now if the ammo situation would return to somewhat normal I'd be happy
