re: Official AR-15 thread

So, I've done a lot of looking around for an AR recently.. as I am sure everyone has been. Came across this company out of Georgia (Head Down Products) that seems like they guarantee you will get a gun if you are willing to wait 7-10 weeks. I have found some reviews on them in various forums and what not, but haven't been able to find any real performance and longevity related info. Has anyone had any experience with these guns? If so, what is your opinion. The only reason that I am considering them is because of the price..$899 is hard to beat in these times.

Here is a link to their site:

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

In that time, you can stake out Academy and Walmart, maybe Cabelas, and get a rifle in store for that price.

I honestly have never heard of that company before clicking that website.

Who ever would have dreamed "profit" and "Tapco" in the same breath?

So mad my student loans and GI Bill money hasnt shown up yet. This would be mine

Polymer mags for $17

Eta: I know nothing about this brand

TangoDown

They make good AR accessories but I didn't know they made mags.

Meh. That's about the going rate on gunbroker now. I'll wait til they pop up for cheaper.

Thanks though

Some people are still paying crazy amounts though. I sold 420 rounds of Federal 5.56 FMJ in an ammo can today. The guy drove from BR to LC just to get it and paid me $350

For those that have built their own AR, what tools are needed? Armorers wrench, torque wrench, vise blocks, some kind of punches?

900 for $200, that's a good deal
