Bear Creek or other Budget ARs

Recently CDNN had Actual Colt 6920's for $699, I can't remember but it seemed like they also came with 3 Pmags.

Anxiously awaiting the "my polymer lower build" doesn't work thread!

IDK based /k/arl at inrange has done destructive testing on the Cav arms GWACS lowers and they seem to work really well, and they ahve used them on their 'what would stoner do" rifles and havent had any problems even in some pretty gnarly competitions.

And if it don't work then my kalashnikov isnt going to stop working

If anything I kinda want to make a more conservative version of Ian's "What would Stoner Do" rifles

That's $300 more than most are willing to pay for something that is only made by a couple of manufacturers so they're all the same!

Bud's Gun Shop has tons of AR's under $500. I was at the store yesterday and they had Ruger AR's for under $500. M&P's also under $500 as well as several other brands of AR's. The market is saturated and you should be able to find a great deal on "budget" AR's.

I am assuming this is supposed to be in purple?

Maybe, but that really seems to be the thoughts and beliefs of several here!

I think it was slathered in so much purple.....the purple ran off

But people are willing to spend $600 on an IPhone.......priorities I guess

TBH Im fiding out if I do some research, for the same cost as a colt or something I can literally get a BCM or aero upper and put two pins to attach it to a lower and away I go.

A 16" finished pencil barrel upper and a Gwacs cav arms lower, vortex spitfire 1x prism sight since I have astigmatism but even then it still is great, and away I should go

To me you get what you pay for, not saying you need to spend a ton of money but I’d probably go for at least a big brand when in that price range. If you just want a plinker then going for this price range may be fine, but I wouldn’t put my life on it.

I bought a PSA for $379.98. It was a "Blem" upper and lower. I bought it as a second AR for plinking. I keep shooting it and putting all the bullets in the same hole. Keep waiting for it to blow up or something because it was so cheap. Fires every time. Good thing I'm not an expert. I'm sure it is junk. I just can't tell because I don't know any better.
