Sounds like a good buy for that price. Especially for someone who is on a budget but just wants to get familiar with the AR platform. ARs are addictive and so if this deal encourages new shooters to pick up an AR, than that is a good thing. If the rifles don't perform well, they can always come to this site and learn how to upgrade or buy a better rifle. Oh, and how about buying one for a kid who won't be using it for anything other than a range gun?
I've seen several of these now. They are a hodge-podge of parts, with a heavy lean toward DPMS components. Assembly quality varies. Those I've seen have been used as sport/hobby guns or dress-up. They are an outstanding value in that use.
With pre-emptive inspection and service by a knowledgeable and experienced armorer, they can be rendered serviceable in other uses for those on a tight budget. At the current price point, adding a known-good LPK and bolt still maintain savings while helping mitigate issues. Staking, gauging, and reaming help with others.
Certainly not a first choice, but not unthinkable either.
Best darn deal I've seen lately is "customer appreciation" at Ranier for standard DD at $999 with a $250 DD gift cert. Spend the balance on an Omega, back-up LPKs, etc. Can't imagine they'll last.
Bases on personal experience, I agree that anyone buying CMMG needs to know what they're getting into.
Seems like a big roll of the dice. Brand new DPMS are selling for close to that around here.
Sorry, I meant USE the $250 on cool DD stuff. You're still into it for a grand. But you're right, you could pawn off the stuff you get...
I read not too long ago Grant had an ADS for sale. There's another good bargain.
Sounds like quite a deal for a rifle that won't see much action this is about perfect for what I want a cheap spare AR-15 for my girl as she is looking at upgrading from the S&W M&P 15-22 . I will be picking one up out the door plus FFL transfer fee $636.00 can't beat that
