Speaking of nice deals...


I was gonna post the same links but wanted to make sure I ordered mine first lol. They already went out of stock once last night, thankfully was able to order the 12in FSP today when they were available again. I had been looking at those for a while and definitely wasn't passing that deal up.

DSG has a pretty sweet deal on Gen M3 pmags (non-window) for Easter weekend. $89.99 for a 10 pack, and free shipping over $99. So add a single mag to the 10 pack and you get 11 Gen M3's to your door for about $100. Don't think I've ever seen this kinda deal on the Gen M3. LINK

ETA: have to have an account (free) and be logged in to see the $89.99 pricing

I have been set on a Noveske barrel, but have been looking at JPE barrels too. They are slightly more expensive and are a 1/8 rather than a 1/7. Anyone have experience with them? How do they compare to Noveske's?

Gentlemen, I'm a hunter and am familiar with most firearms. However, when it comes to the AR platform I'm ignorant.

Never had a need or want for one but a friend has a Bushmaster Carbon 15 with a Bushnell optic on it. He's only shot 2 mags through it. He got a DUI needs cash. He says he paid $795 for it brand new. Wants $650 for it.

I would like to help the guy out but realistically I'm probably not going to do any more with it than take to the range.

Good deal? Good manufacturer? Good rifle?

Do not buy that gun for more than $500.

It's essientially a plastic AR. Composite upper & lower reciever.

Cabelas used to run sales on that package for ~$600.

A Smith & Wesson sport IMO is a much better rifle and you can get one for around the same price as he is asking for the Bushmaster

Thanks for the heads up. Would like to help him but don't really need it and sounds like I don't want it either.

All my parts are in for my first build, now just need some help/info on ammo. Where's the best place to get good 5.56/223 ammo? What to stay away from? Will be plinking and hopefully shooting at some pigs. Thanks for the help, as I've already pestered burgeman and RATeam enough
