What firearm components should I stock up on before potential bans?

According to USCCA's Kevin Michalowski, focus on acquiring standard capacity magazines (like 30-rounders), high-capacity magazines (60-rounders), pistol braces for AR pistols, complete AR-15 upper receivers, and complete lower receivers.

Prices for components like magazines and receivers are currently stable and relatively low. Acquiring these parts proactively can help avoid future price increases or potential legislative bans that might restrict their availability or legality.

How can I build a budget AR-15?

You can build a budget AR-15 by purchasing a complete upper receiver (around $300, including BCG and charging handle) and a complete lower receiver (like Anderson Manufacturing's for $158 with an ambidextrous safety). Standard 30-round magazines are also affordable.

What are the key components for an AR pistol build?
