Go on slickguns and find one of the optic/pmag packages. I recently saw one for $170 for 10 pmags and a vortex strikefire. $500 rifle with magpul furniture +tax&transfer= $600 Strikefire + 10 pmags deal = $170 Magpul flip up BUIS + $60 Magpul railed vertical grip = $25 Case of 5.56 ammo = $250 $1105 and he's got a good fully equipped rifle with 10 mags, BUIS, an optic, and RVG, and 1k rounds of ammo. Ready to rock! Great breakdown! I’ve been hinting at the M&P because been seeing some great prices on them. He had a day off today so we went and looked at a few and he now has his eyes on an LWRC DI. https://lwrci.com/p-839-lwrci-di.aspx |

The thing is, these days AR-15's have homogenized quite a bit. The difference between a Larue and a S&W is pretty small. The LaRue might be better, but not $1k better. If the kid wants a brand name rifle, no harm in that. He might be better served by a cheaper rifle and spending the extra money on accessories and ammo but hey, the heart wants what it wants right? In any case your son wants to buy an AR-15! That's a win in my books! Good job raising a 2A supporting son! _________________ Licensed/Bonded/Insured Hardwood Floor Installer/Finisher http://www.hardwoodfloorsnw.com/ |
