Rock River definitely in the top of the pile for accuracy and tolerance of production rifles.With good ammo I would expect moa or better.
Also the acuwedge that is used to snug up sloppy upper&lower fit by some people on most of the production rifles, wouldn't fit in the R R rifles I have had in the shop, to tight.

Here's a Thought- for those who like AR's ...Some Dyed in the wool old-school Gun Guys. Can handle Recoil...Love their Bolts,levers,pumps,And Semi autos of Many Makes but just Do not like the New stuff. Its a Generational Thing. Nothing against those who do.

people get old their joints hurt , they have fused vertebrate , replaced rotatory cuffs

I think I can safely say my dad was never interested in AR's till I took him out to shoot some of mine then he started thinking about it , took him out a second time out some months later and he he ordered up the parts to build a 300 blackout AR , he had thought he was good and would probably never buy another gun. but shooting a round he could deer hunt with that didn't make him hurt that was real nice , that he could hole 1 inch groups from the bench was even better but when he could stand up and keep on a steel plate in a group smaller than the kill zone on a deer at 100 yards , it was great , light to carry , hands free with the sling he put on it , light recoil.

so when he dropped a 8 point buck where is stood opening morning at 100 yards from standing , he was very pleased , it was money well spent.


so don't knock till you try it!

WRONG !!! Most of the sales are to people that already own one. Those of us that have no use for them don't want one at any price........
Me personally if you gave me one I would sale it. For the way and what I hunt I have no use for one.
BUT to each his own , it is America


I think you missed his point

well no one is forcing anyone to run out and buy one.

gosh your starting to sound like a liberal , Didn't you know next month for spring break were sending every teacher in Wisconsin to Ft McCoy for an intensive 72 hour safety ,security and weapons training. we figured out what to do with all the M9 pistols that are being retired from military service.

yeah start that rumor.

I have tried them. Never was the Rambo wannabe type that wanted to burn thru ammo like scattering corn for chickens.
I got the same problems you described and my 6 MM never hurts when I shoot it. My 700 bdl short action would hold on target just as easily. The "don't hurt you" point is not going to hold water. But Like I've said IT'S AMERICA. One on here said he has 10 of them . Hope he gets 10 more. He can place them around his property when he is invaded LOL

Keep in mind the pressure is in the upper the lower is just what helps you aim/shoot the ARs. If I was to build a AR on the cheap and still have a rifle worth pulling out of the cabinet to go hunting with I'd get a Bushmaster upper ($340.00)and a PSA lower that comes with the EPT (polished trigger) a Magpul MOE stock when they are on sale ($179.95)

You can buy cheaper ARs already built but you will get a cheaper AR then.

Funny thing about 99.9% of ar / blackout/ black guns commercials ALWAYS show people all tacted up like wannabe army rangers or someone defending the Alamo. THE gun companies are not helping the public outlook as they form opinions. City folks are asking why do you need them unless you are going to shoot people.

ANOTHER point you guys talk about how accurate they are . Then answer this why is it that LOTS of the shows on tv that are shooting Ar style have gone to a bolt action vs the semi auto.??? (fox pro fur takers, most hunting shows)

Jbyrd63 his is a AR pistol with brace , the township requires you hunt with a pistol or shotgun .

you can hunt anything else with a rifle but not deer

the make stupid rules we find creative solutions.

we could have built him a bolt action pistol with a brace but the parts were much easier to do an AR pistol , sure there are other ways to skin that cat but this one was a few parts ordered and built on an Other lower receiver.

So some city folk gets to tell me what I need? People that don't own or don't want AR type guns but own guns should be on the AR owners side. Like my mom used to say if you don't have anything good to say don't say anything.

I like getting dressed up to defend the Alamo.... smile

Practice makes perfect and you may not have time to figure it out...30 round mags are nice but I like the 100 round ones... smile

This would be a great time for your local trapping association to raffle off an AR.

For a guy that says he does not care but the backhanded comment/descriptions and what TV is doing has nothing to do with the average AR owner that hunts with them.
