Run, do not walk, to [url]www.adcofirearms.com[/url] and check out the Rock River NM rifles. Steve has excellent prices and shipping. He's a supporter of this site and a fellow shooter at Perry (M1 and AR-15). Knows his stuff, too.
There's no reason to buy a full match rifle if you're just starting out. I'm shooting a standard A2 with 1/2 MOA sights. I just started competing and am scoring in the low 90s. |

I'm in the same boat as the original poster, although mine will be not be for competition. I want a 16" carbine without a compensator/brake and am trying to choose among the RR (not quite sure of the model), DPMS (Panther Classic 16)and Bushmaster (A3 carbine). I also intend to purchase an EOTECH 552 for the rifle and would prefer to mount it so that I still have use of the iron sights. How do I go about choosing among the various manufacturers? Thanks. Russ

From my experience I would say spend a little more money and get the Bushmaster or even a Colt. Please e-mail if you wish to talk further.

I checked out the Adco site, he has a lot of good stuff in one place [b]but[/b] why does he charge $35.80 for the GG&G receiver end plate sling adapter that GG&G sells direct for $27.50, actually GG&G has it on sales in October for $23.38
I wonder if other products are marked up similarly, if so the uninformed consumer could get hosed??? |

Armalite has one of the best out-of-the box DCM rifles, However Bushmaster and RRA offer good examples as well. you can get a DCM AR15 at a very large discount since you are CMP qualified, by buying at the CMP e-Store. You must know that, it's at [url]http://www.odcmp.com/Services/Programs/AR15.htm[/url] you can get the $1200 Bushmaster DCM rifle for $875. Myself if I had money, I would get their Compass Lake DCM offerings. That is the Mercedes of DCM rifles, IMHO.
