The ancient samurai of fame and legend is indelibly connected with his sword. This handmade piece of precision craftsmanship took time to create and even longer to master. Each samurai took inordinate pride in their sword and in learning how to use it with consummate skill. After investing much time, treasure, and effort into the weapon, it is small wonder that a samurai and his sword became powerfully connected. 

Doesn?t this sound much like building and using AR-15 rifle kits?

Handmade and Treasured 

Many shooting aficionados equate the modern AR-15 rifle kit with the samurai sword of old. If you have ever experienced the pride of building something of quality with your own hands, you know the unique bond that process forges. It is pure joy to use what you?ve built ? and pure pain to ever part with it. 

Handmade AR-15 rifle kits are treasured in exactly this way. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced builder, completing a new rifle kit and testing it successfully just feels good. You have created something like no one else owns; it is a powerful tool with impressive capabilities, all thanks to your hard work and attention to detail. 

Custom Fitted to Its User 

The ancient samurai believed they had a special connection with their swords. It was wrong to wield another samurai?s sword for any reason. While there is no real spirit-rifle connection, building your own rifle from an AR-15 build kit allows you to customize it as you see fit. It becomes uniquely yours, as you wish to design and create it. Builders can choose many variations and accessories to customize their rifle, including: 

• Barrels
• Grips
• Receivers
• Ammunition sizes
• Charging handles
• Gas blocks
• Tubes
• Magazines
• Muzzle devices 
• Rails
• Handguards
• Sights and optics 
• Colorization 

Builders can change out accessories endlessly on the same rifle or build several AR-15 rifle kits to explore many desirable customization options. The AR-15 is the most customizable rifle on the planet.
