I am in the market for my first AR in 30 years. My last was a Colt H-BAR in '87 or thereabouts. I have about 1200 to spend.
I know nothing about ARs, except they are more accurate than just about anything else and the reliability issues were solved decades ago. I like the fact that parts and mags are so cheap and available. I like the fact that aftermarket mags seem to work just fine, unlike my Mini-14, which has developed some very annoying habits lately. Can't get through a 20 round Ruger Mag without at least one stoppage.
Need some input. I live twenty miles from Rock River Arms and I worked with Chuck Larson both at Springfield Armory and briefly at Les Baer's shop, before he and Mark left to start RRA. I was considering an RRA gun.
What are your experiences, both with quality and customer service? What should I get?
