Ruger 556
I'd go with the Aero AC-15M over a Ruger AR. It has a better set of receivers, better bolt, and a better barrel. It's a little more money, but worth it.
And yes, I have both. The Ruger isn't a bad gun, the Aero is just better.

To each his own but I built one with a cheap punch set, screwdriver, mag well and AR multi tool . Larry Potterfield Youtube walked me through it. $420 spent and chambered in .223 all mil spec accessories. I cheated a bit buying the upper completed. Then I built another one and upped the ante. You can built it no problem.

Does anyone here actually own the Ruger 556?
I do, thanks to some a-hole on here that posted they were on sale at Sportsman’s Guide. (I think). I remember several posters here bought one at that time.
I like it..feels solid, never jammed yet and I can hit my target. Not sure what else you need at that price range!

Whoever said the Ruger ARs are crap is an idiot. It's one of the best bang-for-buck entry ARs out there.
I have the Ruger AR and it's been almost flawless. I say almost because I bought some cheap arse Russian ammo (Tulamo maybe?) to target shoot and it just did not care for it. Bought different ammo and never had another problem.

pSA has a 16” rifle kit with everything but the stripped lower for $259 on sale this weekend and they have stripped lowers for $29.

What special tools are needed to assemble one yourself?
Good choice of words. Too many posters on here claim they build their AR's when they're actually just assembling parts.
