I'm in the process of building my first AR. I have a stripped lower and just purchased a Noveske 7.5" upper from a follow hider. I have also ordered a ACE ARFX-E stock with kit and lower parts kit from CMMG (not sure when I will be getting those). I have searched the internet and can't find any discussion about bolts, carrier groups, and all of those components. I did find some bolts and carrier groups for sale but the prices vary greatly. LMT enhanced bolt for $389, JP rifle for $200, some complete groups for under $200.

My question is: What recommendations would everyone make for these components?

Thank you,
Scott R
 
Re: AR-15 SBR build

I'm in trhe same boat you are, just bought a 10.5" upper.

I have all the lower stuff but was looking at the RRA Bolt with their gas buster charge handle because I want to use my can on it. Looks like they are in stock as well, but not for sure.
