In my opinion it is better to buy a complete rifle than to build one from parts. There are slight differences in fit between manufacturer's, these can be aggravating to puzzle out, in general, it is best just to buy a complete rifle from a quality manufacturer.

Now I have done this and am very happy with the Armalite, Bushmaster, and RRA NM AR15 that I bought and used. It is my considered opinion that there is very little that you can do to improve upon having someone assemble one from parts. I have met, at Camp Perry, or seen, a number of individuals who have won Service Rifle, President's 100, NTI, with stock box factory Armalite, Bushmaster and RRA NM AR15's.

I like the RRA two stage trigger, I consider it better than the Bushmaster, just as good as an Armalite two stage. The match barrels on these factory rifles are outstanding and part fit has been excellent . Plus, all of these makers back their products.
