    MM, that's a handy looking little carbine package. Handy, affordable, and packs a good punch. I've had good luck with Nikon scopes too, on a lot of my rifles. I have more expensive ones, but Nikons are pretty darn nice glass for the price. I like that muzzle comp too. I need to look at those for a couple of my rifles.

    Thanks ! Yup, it is a handy package. I've had that Nikon scope for many years...... and have moved it between different platforms. It never disappoints.

    Mine just has an inexpensive Nikon AR 3-9X BDC scope, and I added an Aero Precision muzzle comp and an Amish-made leather sling. The trigger is decent enough.
    I'm good to go !

    Do you have a link for the muzzle comp ? A quick search came up empty. Also is there any significant change with it added ?

    (these are made by a division of Aero Precision)

    I never shot the rifle before​ shooting it with the comp. However, comparing it to an AR15 with a standard flash hider, there is much less muzzle rise and recoil.
