    Upgraded 5.56 bolt from TimW(68forums) and an enhanced carrier of some sort.

    For the lower... DSA also has a special on thier ZM4 lower @ 90.00... get a lpk, stock, bufffer and sss spring and were good for well under 8 bills... Just as it was mentioned above...

    Although not my first choice when I entered the AR world(custom 6.8x43)... I am now finding the need for something more basic as a training tool... no bells and whistles and no erroneous accoutrements yet built to abse...
    Think S&W 5.45 upper...

    Aren't those DPMS or Olympic as well?

    Not here.

    lots of people [like me] who wants a AR, but cannot afford it, in time, planning, little by little, [like me]..
    you can build it anyway you wants.
    piece by piece...[like me]
    i thinks the CMMG deal, is great, because after all.? an AR is an AR.
    pretty much all the same, just differant stickers on the door.



    .01 cents worth.

    Other than confirming that the BB gun is indeed an M4-type.

    Was trying to at least show an example of the aesthetics to others who had questions about what they looked like. Wasn't trying to prove they are good internally or not.

    For those that have or will order, I hope they get some good AR's!

    Buy the best you can afford then. Hit the stickied threads for the best ways to mitigate problems you might have.

    Absolutely untrue. There may be owners that will never realize the differences between them, but they are most certainly not the same.

    Thumbs up

    I bought one of the BB guns last year for $570 just to check it out. It turned out to be a Doublestar M4 and it was a decent carbine. Ran like a champ and no visible flaws.

    Most people who have actually received their rifles (instead of speculating, like many here) have good reviews.

    When you state that it "[r]an like a champ" what exactly does that mean? How many rounds over what period of time?

    Wouldn't buying a Smith&Wesson M&P15A from Grant for $850 be a better deal? It already has a troy BUIS and I would guess that it would qualify for Smith&Wesson's mag promotion(buy a M&P15, get 5 free pmags). Factor in the cost of the BUIS and the pmags and the price difference isn't that big, with the advantage of a much better gun.

    pretty happy with mine, altho ? it totally bushmaster, just thoughts the CMMG deal, would've been a great deal for me, back then.

    only other ar's i've ever seen , was an older colt, and a stag.... but what do i know ? looked the same to me ?

    im still at the very bottom of the ar pile.

    Meaning, problem-free operation. Over 1000 rounds in a month's time period. I then sold it and the new owner continues to enjoy it.
