Making my own shooter, good or bad idea?

Unfortunately I think, the sum total of the parts can be more expensive that buying a whole gun. That is why many people part them out on auction sites, because often they can get a lot more for the parts than for the whole gun. It sucks, but it is reality.

It's like restoring an old car. It is fun, but it costs a lot. You can enjoy the process and have the pride of a job well done. Or maybe you buy a completed one for less.

Looking at the prices on the parts and the prices on good shooters itÃ?Â´s not the way to save some $$$$$,.....
But, if it wouldÃ?Â´nt be so dem hard to get the parts over here I would go for it....Just for the fun of it.
