Ok...I found the sporty in a store paid 699$......a little high but not bad....I put a vert grip and quad rail ....might get some off set sights and mount a 4x scope.....
I'd actually consider that a fairly good price, especially right now. I've certainly seen them selling for much more in the last few months.Ok...I found the sporty in a store paid 699$......a little high but not bad
Before I got my Sport last year, I was thinking in terms of quad rails, vertical foregrips, light mounts, etc. In the end, the only thing I've done to my Sport is add a red-dot sight and I've been perfectly happy with it. I guess that's one of the joys of the AR platform, you can modify it as much, or as little, as you want!I put a vert grip and quad rail ....might get some off set sights and mount a 4x scope.....
I second mf-dif. Your next accessory should be lots of ammo and a training class on how to use what you have.
There have been a few times in classes where I have seen guys pull stuff off their AR and stash it in the trunk because it actually made the gun too heavy or got in the way of what they were trying to do.

With six years under your belt as a combat infantry Marine, I'd think you would have a pretty good idea of what you would want hanging off of your rifle.
Fair enough.
'Course, preferences will vary based on how the rifle will be used... which you haven't mentioned. For instance, I have a Burris 3-9x50mm Fullfield E1 scope mounted on the R-15 I plan to use for predator hunting. But, irons would be a better choice for a home defense rifle. And a red dot or holo sight may be a better choice for some folks. I may find a bipod and free-float tube handy, but a vertical grip and a tactical flashlight would probably just get in the way.
So, what is your primary use for the rifle?
