Not wanting to start another flame war over brands - but have a semi-related question. Relatively new to AR's. Have other rifles and hand guns, but not of the "black" variety yet.
Based on what I have researched, I have concluded to look for a RRA in an A4 Tactical or similar config. What I am finding is that RRA equip is pretty much on backorder across the board. Is this true or am I just being handed a line from a dealer who would rather sell me something he already ha son the shelf?
Alternatively, my local shop has 3 Bushmaster M4 look alikes, no-ban. Sweeet!!!! I could take delivery TODAY, no back orders, no waiting. Not sure of the quality in comparison of RRA nor do I really know what to look for. I will say that having one in my hand makes it REAL tempting. Who knows if I will ever see an RRA prior to something tragically happening to the AWB getting another breath of fresh air via EO (courtesy of Mr. Kerry).
All said and done - is a Bushmaster in the hand worth two in the bush? Should I just take what is available and stop pursuing RRA? Would an RRA be worth the wait or is there really no difference?
Know of any dealers out there with RRA's on the shelf?
Questions, questions..... THANKS!
