Thought's on the Armalite 5.56 rifle..

Re: Thought's on the Armalite 5.56 rifle..

This would probably get more traffic in the Semi-auto section of the forum than in the Bear Bit.

However...with that said, all of the Armalite products are top notch in my book in terms of quality/reliability. In reality...it all comes down to: a) which specific model Armalite you are talking about and what you are comparing it to; b) what you need/want from the rifle/carbine; and c) what your budget is for the rifle/carbine.

The AR market is flooded with excellent products (and obviously some not-so excellent ones). The sky is the limit depending on your budget and your timeframe for getting an AR in your hands. Knowing more about what you want/need in an AR will give us all a better idea if the Armalite is a good fit or if you should look elsewhere.
