    Magpul MOE handguard or Quad Rail?

    Re: Magpul MOE handguard or Quad Rail? Thanks for the reply. I like a laser/light for home defense. If things go bad, a laser makes for quick target acquisition, especially in the dark. I will look at some free float guards, but will probably go with the Magpul. If the laser moves too...

    Magpul MOE handguard or Quad Rail?

    I am trying to decide between a Magpul MOE handguard or quad rail. I like the size and feel of the Magpul. My concern is stability...with it being polymer. Will it hold up well? Will it shift? I plan to mount a laser/light combo,and don't want to have to adjust the laser.

    1/7 vs 1/8 vs 1/9 for a 5.56

    Re: 1/7 vs 1/8 vs 1/9 for a 5.56 I'm guessing the lack of accuracy with the lighter rounds may have been due to bullet quality. I have no idea what brand they were. The person that had the RRA gave them to me to sight in his weapon. I know he bought them in bulk, but that and the weight is...

    Cheap, but good entry level AR

    Re: Cheap, but good entry level AR Thank you 1911Ken. I just ordered a 16" mid upper from PSA for $279. Now, I just need to find a good deal on a BCG.

    1/7 vs 1/8 vs 1/9 for a 5.56

    Re: 1/7 vs 1/8 vs 1/9 for a 5.56 Kraig, Thanks for that info. I guess it was just the particular gun I was shooting. The owner, my uncle, said he didn't shoot it well, and thought it was his eyes. I'm thinking it's the gun. Now I won't mind ordering a Spikes or BCM upper. Thanks again...

    1/7 vs 1/8 vs 1/9 for a 5.56

    I purchased a Spikes Tactical complete lower, and was thinking of getting one of their complete uppers. However, I'm wanting a 1/8 or 1/9 twist rate, and it doesn't appear they sell any. I was also thinking of a BCM upper, and I don't think they sell any with those rates either. I plan to...

    Cheap, but good entry level AR

    Re: Cheap, but good entry level AR Well,I ordered the S&W, and was told it was in stock at that time. I called back a few days later, and they said they had made a mistake; that the Smith's are on back order, and they don't know when they will come in. I bought a Spikes complete lower this...

    Mega Upper - Good?

    Anyone have information on Mega uppers? I posted earlier asking about YHM, and have not seen any replies. This makes me a little leery of going with one. The shop also suggested a Mega upper, but I haven't heard of them either. Thanks

    Cheap, but good entry level AR

    Re: Cheap, but good entry level AR Well, I have decided on the M&P 15 Sport. I found a shop in Kentucky that has them for $556 for LE,AD military, and retired military. For that price, I have to give it a try.

    Cheap, but good entry level AR

    Re: Cheap, but good entry level AR After researching the Spikes Tactical, I may go that route. It looks like a lot more rifle for only $100 - $200 more.

    Cheap, but good entry level AR

    Re: Cheap, but good entry level AR They go for around $640 - $700 around here. I haven't heard much about Spikes, I'll have to look into them.

    Cheap, but good entry level AR

    Re: Cheap, but good entry level AR I appreciate all of the responses and information. I agree that the S&W isn't on par with some, but I think it's a good fit for what I am looking for. I want a low price AR that is fairly accurate, and will go bang when I pull the trigger. I have done a...
