I am considering buying this kit. If AR experts could please chime in on the good and the bad. Why would you buy this or not buy this?
As for me:
I want 20" because I want to shoot 300+ yards.
This will not be a self defense, SHTF or hunting rifle, but still having forward assist and dust cover is better than not having them.
1/9 twist is NOT a concern for me as long as those cheap steel 55gr 223 can do fine at 300+ yards.
I like the barrel is Manganese Phosphate, which I understand will last longer without sacrificing accuracy.
Not too picky about furniture, won't be adding anything except iron sights, yes I am trying to do long range with iron sights only.
If it matters, this kit will go on either an Anderson or PTAC lower receiver.
