Hello Everyone. I'm new here, and i've some questions about a reliable and high quality configuration for an 11.5'' AR-15 for CQB, funshooting and homeland defense purposes..
btw: i'm swiss. so forgive me my limited english skills and my lack of knowledge 'bout the "black rifle", it's not very common here because it's VERY hard to get here... (your export laws sux ;)
2 collegues of mine have an ar15, and i want to get 1 of em 2!
most likely, i can get an armalite, or maybe (very unlikely) a RRA or a bushmaster, eveything else will not be possible. what brand would be ur first choice? is armalite a good one or crap?
i think of an 11.5'' barrel (the length isn't a probleme, it's legal here) but i'm not sure if i should take an hbar or a bull barrel like my collegues did. one of em said that the bull barrel is more precise... true? would u guys go with a bull or a hbar? whats the difference in weight between the two in grams? (remeber, barrel length 11.5'') i guess it should be chrome lined.
carry handle (and optics)... a2 or a3? no clue... i prefer the simpler a2 type with an aimpoint in top of the fixed carry handle. or would an a3 be the better way? i'm not sure. besides: i dont want to see stuff from the rifle in the optic, so a perfect witness-optic mount would drive me crazy, so i guess i would be happier with the a2 type? another question: is it possible to mount an eotech on an a2 carry handle or would this be stupid?
later on, i'm planning to mount a surefire light and maybe this: http://www.grippod.com/
anyone know this, is it any good?
i'm looking forward to your suggestions, i'm stuck with 2many options to decide on my own
