Looking for thoughts on choosing an AR15. I owned a Core a couple years ago, but some of the components in the rifle seemed/were cheap, and it was always mis-feeding. I eventually sold it when I had the chance to wash funds out I had in it. I’m wanting to add an AR back in my collection.
I’ve reviewed many posts here, but some date back a year or two, on X vs Y, so maybe upgrades or improvements have been made. Stag seems good, especially with the lifetime warranty I read about, and possibly a Rock River. Do DPMS and Bushmaster fall into the same category? Others to consider?
Uses are just plinking, coyote hunting. I wouldn’t imagine rounds ran thru-out a year would exceed a 1000 . I just want something solid, that will offer no problems with feeding ammo, and shooting brass or steel casings thru isn’t an issue.
Other criteria
5.56/.223, Chrome lined barrel, adjustable stock, forward assist, dust cover. Will want to add a decent scope at some point. Not interested in a bunch of tactical gadgets, add-ons, nor interested in building, and budget is firm at $800. Am I SOL, or is this within reason?
