    Personally I think a board like this one is one of the most important things to come along.

    Back in the day ammo was ammo, any brand of rifle was good to go, whatever scope the gun/sporting goods store had in stock, etc.

    Now we have the lowdown on staking, carbine vs rifle vs mid-length, different stocks/triggers/rails/magazines/optics, brand quality, rifling, different brands and weights of ammo, etc.

    I'm taking a different route on this but how about the internet and forums such as this? the vast amount of knowledge available now days is unprecedented.
    I paint spaceship parts.

    No shit...

    I believe the best thing to hit the AR industry has been The Chart.

    Gun forum regulars from coast-to-coast and around the world have seen it and have taken time to contemplate its implications: That Not All AR's Are Created Equal. And in doing so, smart consumers have started asking questions and demanding better quality from less enthusiastic manufacturers.

    The end result is the quality going up on the less expensive end of the AR spectrum. And with more hunters and casual shooters getting better and more reliable use out of lower-priced AR's, word is getting out that these aren't such bad rifles. Maybe AR guys aren't so evil after all.

    The more AR's that get into the hands of hunters and casual shooters, the harder it will be for gun-grabbers to separate AR owners from more mainstream sportsmen.

    Good work, Rob_S. Thanks.

    BUIS, the folding type. The GF charging handle that I bought feels much smoother than the original model. I bought one as the BCM upper that I bought needed one. Very nice piece.

    Nobody has mentioned mounts. Love or hate him, Larue makes solid mounts that have a repeatable zero if removed. It's hard to mention RDS without the mounts...

    ETA: Reading is fundemental, it has been mentioned...
