I've found a couple on AKfiles but you have to pay attention.
The chrome lining to me is overated unless you are building a 74 and shooting corrosive 7n6 ammo. I've build a couple of 7.62's with the US made nitride barrels and find them to be more accurate. I don't particularlly like the 4140 as I've heard some bad things about them being too soft. Here's a Polish Circle 11 kit from AOA and a Khyber build gun I built from a spare parts kit. Both have AOA nitride barrels and shoot great. If you can a find Romanian kit with original barrel they are good to go..

There are some existing instructional threads on AR building that are very well done that should be linked in this thread so that they are not overlooked. In my opinion.

There are some excellent AR-15 build guides in the Range section of the site with the heading Gun Smithing & Repairs
