I understand. It's a commonly-made point. OTOH, I'm not a professional mechanic, but my power tools are Milwaukee, not Harbor Freight. And, I opted to buy a 370Z instead of a Pontiac Solstice or an S2000. Just sayin'...
Here's my take, FWIW. Getting an AR15 or M4 variant just to
have it, play with it, modify it, or plink with it... that's one thing. If you're going to
shoot it, enough to be
good at it, you're going to want instruction and you're going to put a lot of rounds through it. Buying or building Tier 3 weapons won't achieve that goal.
If that's a goal. If not, then have at it. IMHO, if I'm going to buy a pistol, or a rifle, or a power drill, I'd buy a good one that doesn't take a budget, corner-cutting approach to trying to live up to its design purpose.
IMHO. My approach isn't for everyone.
