Book Reviews of The AR-15 Complete Assembly Guide (AR-15 Guide Vol 2)
Book Review: Good detailed directions
Summary: 5 Stars
I waited until I had assembled part of my rifle before I wrote a review of this book. Based on that experience, I highly recommend purchasing this book if you're contemplating assembling your own AR15 from parts. I have installed the parts kit into a lower receiver using these directions, plus some other sources that I describe below
Pluses for this book include clear pictures of both assembled parts and pictures of individual steps during assembly. Clearly written instructions accompany the pictures. A definite plus is a listing of `pitfalls' before each step warning of potential mis-steps. Directions are also given on where and how to lubricate the parts as they're being assembled.
Another plus is that there are specific instructions for testing the function of such items as the safety and the hammer/trigger assembly so that the assembler can assure the mechanisms are functioning properly and safely.
One minus for this book. It assumes the reader has a detailed knowledge of all the parts. Opening a small plastic bag of all the parts for the lower receiver can be quite daunting when nothing is individually labeled. It's easy enough to pick out a trigger or identify the hammer, but there are several small springs and détentes that are close enough in size that it isn't clear which ones go where. While the book does have an exploded drawing of the rifle showing all the parts, a numbered list of parts keyed to the drawing should accompany it.
This is easily remedied as it isn't difficult to find such a drawing from many parts dealers on the internet. Between the drawing and the process of elimination I was able to identify where all the small pieces went. Brownells website also has instruction videos for assembling AR15s that were helpful. However, any somewhat mechanically inclined person with this book and a copy of an exploded drawing and parts list can successfully assemble a rifle.
