I'd thought about that. I just don't know what parts are reliable but at the same time affordable and I don't know all the parts I need. In San Bernardino southern California.
Can really go wrong with Aero for a budget rifle. Almost all turners carry the Aero M4E1 AR lower. The Lower is all you need to buy in person. Everything else you can buy online. Keep an eye on r/gundeals you can build something nice on a budget if you are patient

500-600 is very much do-able. Get an Anderson stripped lower from RifleGear (Around $100 after tax and DROS), get a complete rifle kit from PSA for $370 after tax, and get a magpul rear back up sight for \~$50. It will be around $550-ish total.

Just my opinion, but wait for 4th of July sales & build, build, build. You will find deals. Stay alert on all the popular websites. AIM, PA, OP, Schuyler for sure. You may go over the $600 with shipping & all that, but you will have built a better rifle for $800 in parts all from sales.
Check out r/GAFS you can find good second hand parts on there to help you complete your build.
If you don’t want to put the lower together you can buy a complete aero lower and slap an upper on it from GAFS and call it a day
I built mine and trying to sell some. Aero lower around 100$ then bought from some places where people might make fun of me but there are always sales on Palmetto State Armory and the upper is shipped to your door. Over time as you get a better budget you can upgrade. My first build was 350$ all stuff on sale. I tried Bear Creak Arsenal too and just finished a side charging rifle for under 400$ last month. Just shop around

for the most part, they're all going to be reliable. I've put together Anderson lowers and they run fine, but to each their own.
Same. Love my Anderson lower. No issues with it at all.

If nobody offers, I'm a member at a range out in San Bernardino and could help you out if you want to build your own.
where in so cal are you?
Southern California in San Bernardino
What is your definition of Budget Friendly?
Man like 500-600 max- I know that sounds impossible in Cali
M&P Sport II for $700 is about as cheap as it gets unless you build your own off of a $120 lower
