I am slowly building an an AR. I am going to place an order w/ Midway sometime soon and thought that this looked like it might be worth including since it is on sale ($30 dollars off).
I talked to a buddy of mine and he said that it's usually cheaper to buy a complete upper than to piece one together. I'm not against the "complete" option but I do enjoy building things. I already have a complete lower (I assembled) and am going to order a stock for sure on the next order. Is either option necessarily is cheaper? I do prefer the flat top (or at least the option to mount optics in place of a carry handle). From the review comments on this item it looks like a good fit w/ a DPMS lower, which I have. Even if the "pieces" option is a little more expensive I might get this project done a little faster if I can get a couple of parts at time instead of trying to plunk down a larger wad of cash at one time. OTOH it wouldn't hurt my feelings to save a few buck right now. I just don't want to regret not buying this later...
