Thread: My first AR

I've finally decided to take the plunge and get my first ar rather than just buying one off the shelf in a bid to learn the weapons system better I've decided to build one so I was wanting to pick the brains of the forums experts with a few questions. It's going to be an A cat build in 5.56 for hunting goats rabbits and the like close range shooting out to around 300 meters with maybe a bit of range work thrown in. I'd like to try and keep the build price under 2k

Firstly what tools would you recommend as being a must have?

It's going to be a A cat build for now and I'm looking at running a carbine system with a spears a cat stock which buffer assembly would work well with this?

I want to run it with a suppressor down line at some stage do I need an adjustable gas block to do this?

Finally I don't really want to mess around with customs importing parts so am looking at getting the parts locally where abouts do you guys like to get your parts from is there any manufacturers or suppliers you would recommend or stay away?

Any help or advice is much appreciated
Cheers James
