(Note, I am an AR noob that through the help of this site and a few others was able to finally complete my first build and then move on to the second shortly there after. Im not a professional, just want to help out the newbies like me.)
So you want to build an AR 15, for cheap, but you want it to be quality? Easy.
-First, buy a stripped lower, you should be able to find a Spikes from your FFL for $99.
-Buy the DD/Magpul Lower Build Kit from PSA.
MOE Lower build kit
-Buy the rifle gear lower build kit tool set.
RifleGear - Riflegear Lower Receiver Builders Kit

As far as uppers, I reccomend a 16" midlength gas system, gov profile*, in either DD or BCM.
-If you want rails, use this AMAZING deal, select the following:
16" Midlength Gov Profile
9.0 Lite Rail w/fsp
Standard A2 Flash hider
Bolt Carrier Group
Charging Handle
A1.5 Rear sight
SMARTGUNNER LINK REMOVED
-If you DONT want rails, go this route:
BCM 16" Midlength upper w/CHF bbl. Select BCG and charging handle.
BCM BFH 16" Mid Length Upper Receiver Group
Magpul Midlength MOE handguards
Magpul MOE MID Length Handguard
And the DD BUIS:
Daniel Defense A1.5 Fixed Rear Sight
If you follow my advice, you will have a MILSPEC+ rifle for around $1000 and it will outlast you.

*This is what I reccomend after having done my own research. YMMV, my word is not law.
