Just put together this morning, the M&A 20 SS rifle kit, on my Anvil Arms stripped lower. The carrying handle is from my Bushmaster M4gery.

Ordered the kit from M&A Parts on Wednesday morning, it arrived at my door Friday evening, Saturday morning assembly.

All parts were included in the package, everything went together as expected, fit and finish is excellent. This is going to be my KISS rifle, throw it in the truck while driving around the ranch and use it to pop coyotes and hogs.

Thanks M&A, and I will recommend you to all of my shooting buddies.

I will post a range report after I get out there today or tomorrow.

ETA: Too cold for the range this weekend, I will get out there next week, and post a report

Glad you had good luck with them.  I wouldn't buy anything from them on account of the Darth Vader Gunshow incident.

It was $599 delivered to my door, $560 base price for the 20" SS kit, $15 upgrade for green furniture, $24 UPS shipping to TX. I was waiting for a kit on backorder from another supplier, but I had settled for the CM barrel because the other supplier didn't offer SS, and they quoted 2 weeks for delivery back in Nov. Since it has been 6 weeks, I called M&A, and they had the SS kit in stock, shipped the same day, and only cost $33 more than the other suppliers CM barreled kt.

Thanks, I like the way it looks with the SS barrel and the green furniture. The only change I will probably make is to get a SS muzzle brake, probably Miculek or JP

Nice rifle!

I just built my first AR with a kit from M&A. Very fast shipping and A+ customer service. Everything went together perfectly and works great.

OK, I finally got it out to the range today, everything is functioning perfectly, no failures in any operation, using a pmag. I shot some Hornady 55 g V-max, some Fiochi 55 g V-Max, and some Winchester 45 g JHP.

Note that some of the hits in the upper right are prior to getting the final sight setting, and even though I have a fairly wide group, I am pretty happy with it, considering it is at 100 yds with open sights and 52 year old eyes.

And, just in case you're thinking "This guy can't shoot worth a shit", here is the result of emptying a magazine from the scoped carbine at 100 yds with the same old eyes and ammo
