I recently (back in August) purchased an upper and lower to build my own AR. Actually, someone had offered to help me build it and it looks like he lost interest. I'd like to build it but, am actually clueless as to what else I need and the steps. I'm a quick study so any suggestions or YouTube videos you know of would be greatly appreciated!

I'll post pics of what I have when I get home and get possession of my upper. Lol

I know I'll need some additional parts.

Thanks in advance!

Guns scare me. Honestly never thought about building my own. Other priorities right now, maybe in a few months once the dust settles lol.

Yup, you are, but you're off to a great start. YouTube is your friend, that's what I did for my first build. Here's my last build. Yup, it's an AR pistol

Do you live in CA? How did you go about building it? I hear there are very strict rules to follow as the law is murky to say the least.
I bough a complete Wyndham yesterday along with a lower. I plan on building up the lower but also want to get an AR pistol. Any info would be great.

You can't technically build one from a separate upper and lower. You have to buy it complete. I bought the pistol with a standard gas impingement 10" upper and a no frills Mega Arms lower. I rebuilt the lower with better guts and put an Adams Arms gas piston 7 3/4" upper. Added the Primary Arms micro red dot, MBus flip up co-witness sights and the CRD break. The plan was to use it for HD, but it's way too loud and belches way too much fire for night time encounters. That is and no photo shop picture. It's a single frame from slow motion video.
