    Colt AR15A4

    Took the plunge and put one of these on layaway today. I would think that most mags work well with this gun, but for those that own this particular model, are there any brands of mags that are problematic?

    You shouldn't be seeing any issues at all. Congrats on your new purchase.

    Nope, should be good with any STANAG compatible mag. That's one of my favorite all time rifles; it's an absolute pleasure to shoot.

    Check out Lancer L5AWMs. They are an excellent magazine.

    Solid rifle.
    My AR15A4 is accurate and functionally very good.
    The trigger is ruff, but this is a service rifle.
    The Magpul Gen3 work well.
    I like the Colt and NHMTG metal magazines too.

    Good shooting.

    I don't have the optics to test the accuracy of mine properly. What groups are you seeing at best? Mine shoots pretty good with irons.

    Smooth rifle. Got it from Grant 3 years back I think.

    No mag issues.

    I purchased a 2nd last week, thinking they fixed the FSB issue. Alas, it isn't F marked. It will still zero, but it is frustrating nonetheless.

    For a service rifle, 1 to 2 MOA is just fine (I think).
