Four Pointer
I'm building my first AR and I'm close to being finished. Building two actually. Since all is "Mil Spec", I'm wondering if I need to check the headspace when I'm all finished. Does everyone do this? Is it necessary to buy one 'go' and one 'no-go' gauge? I found them for around $50 each. Both AR's are chambered in 223 Wylde. Hate to spend $100 on something I don't really need. Is it rare for this headspace check to fail the test? What does everyone else do post build? To bad my local gun shop doesn't have 223 Wylde gauges, otherwise I would have brought them in for a quick check. Thoughts from those more experienced?
