AR-15 upper feedback from SOTA arms

Does anyone have any feedback on these AR15 uppers from SOTA Arms.
They seem to have reasonable pricing. I found them through AR15.com.

I find that parts build up rather than get sold, and it has worked out well for me doing that.
Your probably right, I never end up selling anything.
I have learned a lot about AR's in the last few days from the members on this forum in a language an AR newby can understand without having information overload swimming through all the information on AR15.com or M4carbine.net.

Thanks for the info, I am going to try to keep the build under 800 for my first. I can get to know the weapon and my preferances. Later I can modify or sell for money towards my next build.

Re: AR lower, parts and stock kit (Houston)

Thanks TAM for the great advise. I have been reading AR post on this forum for a while but you advise really helps clarify differances on barrels and twist for the novice.

My suggestion would be to buy an assembled upper. I am partial to BCM for uppers and bolt carriers (http://www.bravocompanyusa.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). Sign up for their email updates on out of stock products and eventually you will get one.

Do you mean should you get an upper with a 1:7 twist rate?.
Thanks for the info. What size barrel is standard or is reccomended for a general purpose build?

Re: AR lower, parts and stock kit (Houston)

Thanks every one, I pulled the trigger on this one pending fund transfer.
I guess now I will need some help choosing an upper. To build or complete?
I assume I can get 556 and shoot 223 as well? This is for general purpose.
7:1 Rifle? What tool kit to order for assembly?

Re: AR lower, parts and stock kit (Houston)

I don't know anything about AR's but want to build one.
Is this a good start?
