I am thinking about buying an AR-15 and get after market part and to just learn everything myself, but my friend is telling me to buy everything stripped and put it together myself so i learn everything and save money. My argument is wouldn't it be wiser to buy a complete one, get familiar with it and then can start breaking it down and replacing all the parts as i go. Basically I am just looking for some advice, I know I do that a lot on here, but anything I get from you guys helps. I just don't want to buy all the parts piece by piece and then end up having a box full of AR parts and not knowing how to start. I know there are youtube videos but they are not always the best for some people. Anyway any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
