Hello everyone.
I'm new to THR, but not new to firearms.
I've decided it is about time I got an AR platform rifle. As I am not that well versed throughout the various and quite plentiful options to choose from I would like anyone's input (preferably firsthand). I do however have some criteria for my choice.
MUST be offered in/with;
- between $700-$900 range
- 5.56 nato and not just the .223 rem
- chrome lined barrel
-must have back up irons (or sufficient rail space for them to be installed)
preferred;
- mil spec parts
- collapsible/adjustable stock
- barrel length is not that much of a concern for me as long as it's legal in MO
I'm sure I'm leaving out quite a few options but these are most of the basics I would like covered.
I'm just not quite sure where to start. Iam a southpaw, but I'm not sure if that matters much with the AR platform, it's just something for me to keep in mind while on my search.
Any help from you all is appreciated and I hope everyone is having a great summer so far.
