It would be nice if you took time to explain how you came to your decision and explain your set up
I wanted to see if I could build a pistol.. That's pretty much it. Gun has no real purpose, but “internal home defense” is what I could claim. The decision to use the parts listed below was from lurking here for half a decade. I realize this is a place for people who have chosen or are conscripted to use these tools like I use a Bloomberg Terminal so I appreciate all of the sharing of accumulated knowledge and attitude here.
Parts list:

Excel tells me the parts above cost $1,370.65 excluding the amount spent on numerous specialty tools and the detachable accessories both that can be used for other armaments. I acquired most of the parts over nine months and putting stuff together as I received it. I followed instructions from here, TOS, random AR15 dedicated blogs, YouTube, and Brownells. Attaching the BCM KMR was the least enjoyable task. I sure hope it doesn't blow up the first time I use it. I still can't believe everything fit together and I didn't lose a single part.
Photos to follow once I get some good natural light.
