Been thinking about building my first AR-15 for a while now and finally started looking at parts. I've seen some decent deals out there, but man, it's overwhelming. I'm not exactly sure what's worth buying.

I'm planning a basic rifle build, probably going with 5.56 for now, but I'm totally open to other suggestions if anyone has them.

What brands should I definitely steer clear of? What are some hidden costs that new builders often miss? And honestly, would it just be smarter to buy one already put together?

I'd really appreciate any advice or maybe just some lessons you learned the hard way when starting out. Thanks!
