    Add Bolts, BCGs, and stripped lowers to the mix. I have never seen prices as low, and availability as high for AR parts.

    I'd advise anyone with foresight to take advantage of this. I think a lot of it is a wave of production overlapping the last several years of increased demand. Now would be a good time to seize the opportunity the manufacturing "boxcar effect" that is occurring at the moment.

    A sling is absolutely necessary. I have spent the last 14 years of my life as an LEO and can attest to the utility of a sling. Think about it. You present your rifle and suddenly bad guy becomes compliant... Might need a free hand to use a phone, manipulate doors, etc. Let's say bad guy has no weapon but tries to take yours... Its awful nice to have it attached to your body as just an added level of security/retention. For me, it is pretty tough to handcuff a guy with both hands occupied.
    As for a light... Also a necessity. You can't hit what you can't see, and it is extremely important that you positively identify your target before firing. It also provides the tactical advantage of reducing a target's ability to see and creates disorientation in darkness.
    Mags, ammo, sling, light. These are needed for an HD carbine. A red dot is nice but not needed. You should practice with your go-to weapon enough that fast accurate shots are instinctive at in house distances.
    Buy a good rifle, get a pile of mags and ammo, a sling and a light. Then, hit the range often. You will determine what (if anything) else you desire based upon experience.
