AR Picture Thread

I know that the big "FN" billboard on the side bothers some people, but it never mattered to me one way or the other. Still, I would imagine that an unobtrusive rollmark would have gone over better.

Let's be real. The majority of folks wanting 20" fixed stock non-free floated ARs are buying them because they look like the M16A2/M16A4 clones they or someone they know had in the military or they're used to seeing on TV.

FN decided to put a dumbass FN logo on the side which really hurt those sales.

I'd leave the iron sights on and rock out as-is. No need for a crazy FFP optic or anything like that.* Have fun with it for what it is. The last US Military full-size battle rifle to ever see combat

If it goes bang when you pull the trigger how much more "best" is there.

I'd rather this thread not degenerate into the whole "does it meet of exceed the TDP?" thing. Suffice it to say that FN seems to have a generally good reputation, and the FN-15 will probably do fine for most people that buy one. Fit and finish are certainly first rate, although I know "how well does it work?" beats "how well does it look?".

I second the primary arms optics if its just for the range, thier 4x optic to keep the price down, other wise eurodiver, (europanties) is right, I'd go for the trijicon RCO

You've got some reading to do through these forums.

I picked my colt up as a "back to basics Iron's rifle" that was stupid simple and could teach people the fundamentals of marksmanship. Works great, and my former marine buddy's love it. I think the rifle has potential to be more than that if someone has the mind to fit it with an Omega Rail, bipod and good glass with match ammo. Then again, you could just build an SPR at that point. It's fun, bottom line. Best part: it's Colt.

Euro, your right, it's a ton of fun.
