I am considering purchasing an AR. Most likely, I will start with just the lower and build from there. What would be your top three manufacturer recommendations, and should I go stripped or complete. (I have a go to person to help with assembly if need be.) I only have the money to go at this one time, and I want to get a good quality lower to start out. Price isn't the big factor, quality is, and I want to ensure that I get this right the first time around. Thanks....
