Thanks for the context. I was never interested in owning an AR myself, not to mention that it seems to me like they're way overpriced due to a lot of them being glam guns. He did it for a living for years, so I took him at his word.
No problem. As an owner of a fully-custom glam gun, I recommend building a shitty one first to learn what breaks and what doesn't.
That's where AR15s shine. You can build one pretty cheap and it's workable. Cheaper than any AK you can buy in the US.
If you want all the tacticool glam bling, you can do that, but it's excellent the without all that crap.
