The Complete AR-15 Builder's Handbook is a clear, reliable, and easy-to-understand reference for readers who want to understand the AR-15 platform-its design philosophy, component ecosystem, evolution, and the principles behind safe and responsible ownership. This handbook focuses on knowledge and awareness, not hands-on construction or assembly instructions. The AR-15 platform is one of the most widely discussed and adaptable firearm systems in the modern era. Understanding how its major systems relate to one another-rather than how to assemble or modify them-helps readers make informed, lawful, and safety-focused decisions.
