I assume you are talking about putting one together from parts.... not building one from blocks metal right? I have heard of guys machining there own AR lowers, but the cost once buying a chunk of 7075 aluminum would not make it worthwhile other than the satisfaction of being able to say you truly built it yourself. I have considered building a gun myself just for the challenge, but I would have no way to make rifled barrels and other parts would need specialized heat treating which I would not want to risk making a mistake on.
