I have the opportunity to pick up wither the Rock River Arms Delta Mid-Length (here http://www.rockriverarms.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_id=568 ) or the Rock River Arms Elite Comp (here http://www.rockriverarms.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_id=374 ) for a bit of a discount. I can't say how much, sorry. ;)

The Elite Comp has a free-float, and comes already with a chrome lined barrel. But is that worth the extra $450 stock price? Or are you paying for the added assembly?

This is a gift for my dad, and I'm not a rifle mastermind, that's why I'm looking for some insight. It would be for some coyote hunting, some plinking, and some private family courses.

I'm just wondering what the Elite Comp has that makes me need that, and spend the extra 4bills over the Delta Mid-Length. Thank you!

Good observation. Seems as though you're paying for the labor in that setup more than anything, well, and convenience of having it ready when it arrives at your door.
