Building Your AR-15 From Scratch

The How and Why of Building Your AR-15
If you're looking to build your first AR-15 or even if you've already built one, this video will provide you valuable tips, tricks and insight into the How and Why of building and maintaining your AR-15. I scoured the web - forums, YouTube and major retailers for info, and there is tons of it out there. The only problem is that you'll spend lots of time trying to figure out what is good or bad practice, especially if you're new at all this AR-15 building business. Well, look no further, because this DVD puts it all together for you using a Master AR-15 Armorer as your instructor. Unlike a major web retailer that offers free videos and trying to sell you tools and gadgets, this instructional DVD spends more time on the How and Why you need to do the things you do when building your AR-15. I highly recommend you give this DVD a chance - you'll be glad you did. You may also want to pick up a copy of the "M4 Carbine-M16A2 W/E Armorer's Guide" by Desert Publications as a reference resource...

Good Stuff!
Finally a video that has included ALL the tips necessary to work on and add accessories without damaging the finish of the rifles. It is NOT a "DRY" boring video, it is a two person conversation with explanations and questions being asked. He shares the tools that are necessary to complete the task at hand but will not cost you a fortune to acquire. I have seen MANY Ar 15s come in that have scratches because of improper tools being added.
This video is hosted by a master armorer and it is quickly obvious he knows what he is doing! You will not be disappointed with this product. Don't let the 3 hr lenght detour your purchase. It is set up in "chapters" allowing the opportunity to stop and start over without loosing your place. VERY satisfied.

Good Video
This video is well made on the content side. It is, however, poorly made on the video quality side. The work area seems to be a room in a factory. During the video one can hear the banging of machinery running. At times one can hear workers talking in the background. The backdrop of the movie is a piece of cloth that seems as though it could fall at any time.

Now for the gun content. The video is very informative. I enjoyed the person that continously asked questions off the screen. Many were the exact questions that I had. The knowledge if the person actually doing the work was exceptional. He took the time to point out the parts that were being discussed, usually with a punch as a pointer.

Overall, I would buy it again, and would recomend it.
