I'll admit my version of that rifle is about 100 bucks cheaper since I already have a lower and other bits

Stripped lower is the only part I already have at the moment.

Warning though, if you get that barrel get the one from Faxon in .223 Wylde instead of 556, it's worth it in the long run

Oof, $1600 being "mega budget", lol. I wish gunstruction would let me export to like a spreadsheet so it's easier to view all the parts.

I got the s&w M&P for my first ar, along with other essentials. Spend $550 to have something immediately that will still go bang(never had a malfunction, probably 3-4k rounds) then upgrade the parts as you get the cash to make it top end and exactly how you want it
