| I am getting ready to purchase a new AR. I have decided on a RRA 16" mid length CL flattop with the A2 detachable carry handle. I have tried to research everything on the board to the best of my abilities, but am I missing anything? I was going to order it from pete from AR15sales.com. He said $869 shipped to my ffl. Is this a fair price for this particular firearm? Has anyone had experience dealing with him? I just want to have all of my ducks in a row before I lay down that kind of cash. |

If you go to the EE and check the feedback section, you will find out all the info you want on anyone who sells things here. You may think about calling what you you want as an A3 flattop. The term A2 usually means a fixed carry handle that can not be removed. It would be horrible if you used the term A2, and were shipped something you really didn't want. You may want to consider getting a Backup Iron Sight instead of the carry handle. The BUIS are roughly the same cost, and you can use them with or without an optic. This will save you money down the road if you decide you want a scope, Eotech, or other optic. Good luck, RRA builds a nice carbine. You may also want to check to see if you are getting a chrome lined barrel or not. Chrome lining is a nice thing to have if you aren't using a SS barrel. You may also want to check out what the barrel profie is. Many, if not most of the RRA come with a heavy barrel. There are a lot of people who prefer a lighter weight barrel, which is usually available for around the same price. |
