So a couple weeks ago I get a notice from a local AR parts supplier they are having a flash sale. AR lower parts kits for $25, charging handles for $5, gas ports for $6 etc, etc. with free shipping. Too good a deal to pass stocking up on parts.
So I bought a couple LPKs, 3 charging handles and some gas ports, tubes etc.
I had a couple uppers I've been switching charging handles, i.e, more uppers than handles and I had a couple stripped lowers without parts to build them.
So last night I sat down to build one of the lowers. I'm out of practice so it took me awhile. Used to be able to slap one together in about half an hour. It took me 2x that this time. But I got it together. Still trying to decide to make it a pistol or rifle. Probably a pistol first since you can then make it into a rifle or pistol anytime later. The key thing was to get the parts installed and stash the lowers away just in case you can't get either in the future.
