    Thanks too all!

    Swapped out a barrel and some other parts for my son's gun. Talked NFA and will soon have a few less dollars.

    Got to use a few tools and jigs that I should at to my repair parts list.

    Well worth the drive.

    Hey what a great time! Thanks to everyone that made this build party happen.
    I met several new members today and learned a few things about building AR’s and it only cost me $0.00

    Fun time, I look forward to the next one.

    INGO FOREVER!!!

    corey (ssnfa) and the gentleman set up next to him..VERY SORRY...name escapes me.

    That would be Cwood of Indiana Supply Depot.

    shooter521(?) was very patient with me even as i was driving in pins w/out springs...things getting lost...getting little late ect....

    No problem at all; it was nice meeting you, and glad we got your lower together!

    Nice meeting everyone! Seems like this was by far the most successful build party to date; I supervised 6 lower assemblies at my end of the table, I expect VUPDblue did just as many on his end, then there was the group outside, and the guys who came in late, and the upper I helped re-barrel... Good times. :yesway:

    Thanks guys for putting this together had a blast. I brought my buddy with me who was on the fence about an AR-15 but after this he couldn't wait to get started. Thanks again and look forward to the next one.

    I had a great time helping and talking to everyone. I didn't manage to get any usernames from pretty much anyone :xmad: but that was my own fault for not asking! I agree with shooter521 that this was the most successful party to date. Thanks again all for coming!

    A big thanks to the guys that organized this and to the range for hosting. It was a good time. The clevis pin trick to install the front take down pin was great! :yesway:

    I've had a couple AR15 torn down to nearly nothing but it had been years ago. I'm amazed how much I forgot about what all goes where on these guns.

    I was the guy in the INGO shirt who brought the vice. I guess the vice was pretty popular. I only got to work at that table and build one of my two lowers. :):

    My buddy Ben got his LMT 16" rifle fully assembled though. He's got an itchy trigger finger already. EBR disease spreads rapidly. :laugh:

    It was nice to see everyone at the build today and want to thank everyone that came. I neglected to ask many what there name was.

    I would also like to thank everyone that stopped by my table and made a purchase.

    We will have to do another build in the fall. :D

    Thanks to all for organizing, and Shooter521 and VUPDblue, (among others) for taking their time to try to keep us Noobs in line. Shooter was extra patient at his end of the table, and his step by step approach made everything go very well. Thanks to Corey for taking a check, (even tho he assured me he could hunt me down like a rabid dog if it bounced) and Cwood for taking their time, and a lot of driving in Cwoods case to be there.
    My site supporter check will be in the mail later today.
    You guys were all great.

    Big thank you to everyone who had a part in the build party. Met some great people and was able to put together a lower. Joined INGO as a result of the good time and look forward to participating on the board.
