I would love to have the book. There is always something to learn. Thanks
I have one of the early Colt models. I like to leave my guns as original manufactured. But, I would like to win the book.
I mentioned building up AR’s for various purposes and all around defense pieces is my bread and butter, but forgot to mention, the 14trh is actually my Birthday, so a real sharp addition to my bookshelf would be a nice prestn!~ (Hint, hint) LOL!
I do my own work, building up AR’s as tactical, accuracy or all around defense pieces is my bread and butter!~

This book would be a terrific asset to me as I am in the process of building an AR this moment.
Thanks.
I will be building an AR for competition. Already have Smith & Wesson receiver for it.
I like to work on all types of guns more info. always a good thing
Do most things myself but some guidence can be a good thing. My 1st build went well but would like to learn more about the upper.
I work on my own guns. And Gun Digest books are great, from “Uncle Dino” to Patrick Sweeney.
I have paid for some work, do some work myself. I would love to win this book to be able to save more money and buy more toys!
I PAY A GUNSMITH TO maintain/repair/accessorize MY AR-15.
I work on and modify all of my guns, including an AR15. Having all of the technical information and recommendations in one book would be very helpfull.
I’ve been a long-time proponent of self-sufficiency and prefer to do my own work when possible.
I’ve been accumulating parts for my first AR build (but not my first AR owned) and have amassed a large quantity of tools to go along with them. I think this book will serve its, and my, purpose very well.
Gun Digest Rocks!
Thanks for the feedback – We’re glad you like it!
This book would be very helpful in maintaining my AR.
I would love to win this book! I am building my first AR now and could use the help!
Just joined this site and am enjoying it greatly. Am attempting a career change at 50+ yrs old into p/t gunsmithing and custom gun building.I should have done this 20 years ago!! These books would be a nice addition to a mostly empty library
.
Welcome to the site! We’re glad you’re enjoying gundigest.com, and best of luck with your new venture.
I’m IN ! I can use all the help I can get!
I have just started accessorizing my Colt AR-15 and need all the help I can get.
I had one in the past and miss it now. They are great rifles and I would love trying to build one myself
Looks like a cool book
