Hey all. I never really got into the AR-15 thing, but I think I will be investing in one soon. Most of my shooting is handguns and shotguns, so other projects have gotten in the way of this one. I am looking for a basic, no frills, gun that:
Thanks for any recommendations.
- Is an AR-15. Naturally.
- Chambered in 5.56x45mm.
- Runs on standard M16 STANAG magazines.
- 16" barrel. Odds are I will eventually Form 1 it to an SBR configuration, but for now I'll start as a Title I item.
- I'd prefer the M16A1 triangular handguard style, but the M16A2 is fine too.
- With a carry handle is preferred.
- Don't really care on the stock; fixed or collapsing is fine.
- From a reputable manufacturer.
- I'd like to keep it in the ballpark of $1,000 +/- for a NIB rifle, if possible. If I have to go a bit more, it is OK as I'd prefer to buy quality.
Thanks for any recommendations.
