OK, now that I can, I plan on building 3 rifles for my kids. (9yr old and 2-6 yr olds). I plan to teach them to shoot with them, and some day, hopefully hand them down. Looking for very light rifle, but tossing ideas around. Would like to build 3 identical rifles to keep arguements to a minimum.
So far;
3 Ameetec lowers
3 RRA parts kits
3 RRA 6 position stocks
3 RRA enhanced bolt carriers with charge handle
Next planned purchase
3 Bushy superlight uppers; thinking A2, but may go A3.
And for the nauseating part, I promised them I would paint the furniture whatever color they want.
Son wants yellow, 1 daughter wants pink, 1 daughter wants purple
I figure 'what the heck'. If it gets them more interested in shooting, I don't care if one has pink polka dots.
Anyway, any input? A3 be better for possible sigts later? Anything I haven't thought about? An A3 platform wouldn't add that much weight, but would a good bit of versatitlity. Also would be quite a nice SHTF arsenal should one need it
Thanks
Doc
