Hey all,
I currently have a Colt LE6920MP and I love it. I have the itch to purchase another AR15. The main purpose of this rifle would be to plink around and shoot some steel on my friend's property. This will be a shooter and far from a safe queen. Scratches and wear will eventually be the norm for this AR. However, I can't decide if I want to build my own or if I want to purchase a cheaper priced one. I've been reading more and more good things about the S&W M&P15 Sport and it seems to be priced around the $700 price point.
That got me thinking what kind of plinker AR could be built for the money. Perhaps I can get a better rifle for the money if I piece it together component by component. Could this be done?
I'm asking for some ideas here. What kind of plinker can be built under $700? I do not want to use the cheapest quality parts. Quality is very important to me and I still want a quality rifle. It will be fed cheap plinking, dirty, target ammo too, so it must cycle the cheap stuff reliably.
Please post up your ideas for a $700 plinker AR15! Iron sights are fine for now.
Have at it!
