Battle ready Ar15

[robbins290]

I would take any of the top tier ones. That meant certain specs. Of course. Tho i do not see the need of 4150 barrel steel with a semi auto. If i had a full auto and uncle sam was paying for the ammo. Then i could see a need for it.

New out of the box today? In no particular order; SLGW, BCM, Sionics, DD, Centurion.

Pretty much a non factor as every duty level gun is going to have a 4150 cmv barrel unless it would have stainless (recce style) for some reason. When vendors like PSA are using 4150 barrels. I believe Ruger, S&w sport and lower tier brands like dpms are the only ones using 4140 these days

I'm trying to finish my "battle" ready m16A4 but I can't find a legitimate A2 stock kit.

The best I've found is the Colt ones from specialized armament but I'm not prepared to pay $250 they also have a Colt A2 stock kit with an extruded receiver extension for $135.

I'm having a tough time any help would be appreciated. Gotta stay battle ready ya know

I’m mostly interested in seeing if someone with experience would feel comfortable taking a civilian ar on deployment. If so what brand would you trust your life to out of the box? Not really interested optics, slings, grips, Etc.

Poke around the forum for awhile. Search it. Use an outside search engine like yahoo or google to search it.

The answer is yes. But I don't think you have a clue what these rifles are or how they work or what's what, or you wouldn't ask about a "civilian AR" seemingly inferring that it would be any lesser than the mil (you can build a nicer and arguably better rifle "civilian" than general issue in the mill)

Relevant to your interests as well

Shark arms has FN A2 kits for $115. He also gets a lot of Colt stuff. Give Chris a call sure he can set you up. They are gtg I have bought a good bit from him. Sometimes a wait on Colt stuff but everything I bought was as described

Arms unlimited would be a place to check as well. Mixed feedback on them as a vendor but the few orders I have placed have been fine. Thoroughbred armament carries Colt as well I believe but no experience with them

I’ll keep searching.

Not anticipating any battle other than with my wife when she sees how much ammo I’m buying.

40mm ammo cans can easily be disguised as footstools.

My wife just can't figure out why I have 9 footstools in my office.

Dude, how do explain the rather heavy "footstools"...?

I'm not going into battle anytime soon, still fit, would answer the call but past my prime. But I want a extremely reliable, durable, resistant to abuse and reasonably accurate rifle. I read these boards and bought a Colt for my first AR. Since then my tastes have refined [a little] and I wanted a rifle that more closely mirrored my tastes. But I stayed with proven performers when assembling the parts necessary. So my current favorite is a Colt, LMT, BCM, Geissele, JP Enterprises combo that does what I want it to do.
