I chose the top option, but there are higher levels of proficiency, I suspect. Personally, I've built about 20 ARs now from unassembled parts for myself and others, including scratch-manufacturing parts. I've worked on probably 3 or 4 times that many rifles.

I still don't consider myself any sort of "expert".

The AR15 really is the lego of rifles and can be worked on to varyign levels of proficiency by the everyman.
