When I am asking how long, not physically but deciding on what you want to build and when to order the parts.
I just finished one lower and I have the receiver in hand (ordered about 2 months ago) but not sure where I want to go from here. Been looking at different rails, barrels, gas blocks and etc. When I order the lower, receiver and trigger I had all the springs, pins and detents on hand.
Now, I have 2 more lowers and was thinking about buying sections/parts over time. Maybe the next 12 months. That is killing my OCD! All of these are the AR-15 platform. Have not started thinking about an AR-10 platform.
I would guess anybody that has built a couple ARs would have a bunch of different spare parts that you did not like and swapped them out for something different laying around. I know that I must have 3 different triggers somewhere in the shop.
