Anyone think we need another AR build class? Tulsa, possibly OKC?

I got about a hundred flat trigger guards and A2 grips for anyone who wants one!

I'd like to be included if the time works out for me.

Really enjoyed and learned a lot at the Jan 2016 class, and would be interested in attending another schedule permitting. Thanks tRidiot!

This is a great idea for a get together.

I built my first lower by following a video that had some good tips and tricks and I didn't need any special tools. It took about twenty minutes.

I have never built an upper but I have helped a friend change out a handgaurd to a free float setup that included removing and replacing the flash hider, gas block, gas tube, and barrel nut.

A vise would have made it a lot easier but the only "special" tool we used was a rented torque wrench to tighten the new barrel nut made for the free float handgaurd.

I have always been mechanically inclined and have worked with hand tools a lot, so I had confidence that I could do it easily, but I know a lot of people aren't, and some learn better with a hands on approach.

I wish I had bought all the tools for AR assembly years ago. The flying pins and searching for stuff on the floor sucks. Now I would much rather build an AR than change oil in my truck. Built my first unit in 1984 on Olympic Arms parts. Had only one tool a smuggled from the national guard wrench. What an adventure. Now it's like screwing in a light bulb. Wife even built one for herself

So we had a shop in Tulsa to have this get-together done before, but I haven't seen Deano (@lkothe) on the forum in a long time. Searching his name, it looks like a couple of years, so...

Anyone have any options for a place to get 10-15 guys together, set up some tables and 2-4 vices with adequate lighting to do something like this?

I could provide lots of questions.

We think alike DRC
