This is a more modern built AR-15. Definitely much different than my first build from the 1990‘s. This is a rifle combination you would not be able to find in a gun store. Some of the unique features are the olive drab green color, .223 Wylde stainless steel fluted barrel, color matching aluminum one piece M-Lok hand guards, combination muzzle device, nickle boron bolt carrier group, teardrop forward assist, color matching trigger guard and forward grip. The magazines, magazine coupler, sling, red dot scope, and ammunition would all be separate items you would need to gather up to complete this package.
I would consider this rifle to be a basic high-end build. The components are some of the best that are available. The retail cost of these components was in excess of $1800. I try to purchase components when they are on sale. A lot of money can be saved that way, it just takes more time waiting for the sales. Another $1000 or more could easily be spent on laser sights, rail lights, scopes, custom triggers, carbon fiber components, rifle case, and so on. There is hardly any limit on what someone can spend. The quality of the components are what determines the final cost. Higher quality components will create a better looking, better fitting, longer lasting, more accurate, and problem free rifle.
