Hi all, I'm trying to get a list of tools that I will need or even make my life easier as I put together not only my first 308 AR but my first AR. Thank you in advance for your help.

Thx for the input guys, I'll check out brownells to see what I can find for informative material at the very least I can maybe get a list of tools and what not that I will need.

I did not build my 5.56 AR but have stripped it down to do basic maintance. I did take the trigger assembly out once out of curiosity and was able to get it back together. I do have a gun smith friend that I can consult if I really get stumped but I would like to bug him with shop talk as little as I can because he is nut deep in his own work. I was thinking that between a book and youtube I could get r done but was looking for a recommendation for a book or dvd.

I'm getting ready to start my first AR build, and seeing as I already have a 5.56mm variant I'm finally going to get myself the .308 version that I've always wanted. I have some basic understanding of how to perform the general maintance on an AR style rifle but not the knowledge to build one. I was looking at maybe picking up a book or video to familiarize myself with the process and was wondering anyone had any recommendations.

I to am about to start my first AR build, I already own an AR-15 but my heart belongs to the .308. I'm going to be picking up a SI Defense matched set and have no idea where to start beyond that. I have always settled on lower quality based around my budget and that is not going to happen with this project. This is to be my pride and joy and not a subject to compromise. With that being said I am open to any advice that more experienced folks can give me an any education as well. I want to thank you in advance for helping me with what I'm sure will be silly rookie questions.
