Welcome to the clan, ps, from the great nation of Texas! I wondered your frozen wastelands for several years, some of it is very pretty in either white or green!
A poor assembly will make even the best selections of barrels and uppers less than steller and, conversely, a really good assembly methodology can take lesser quality parts and deliver pretty amazing results. There are a lot of threads across these pages about trueing up the upper receiver prior to mounting the barrel. Makes an incredible difference! There was an article in G&A a few years ago by Peyton Sweeney about his journey thru rebuilding an AR and he states that he was amazed at the difference trueing up the upper receiver made.
Keep us posted on your progress and your grocery list.
