WTB Looking for a cheap stock AR15

[LVAL]

Looking for an entry level AR15 prefer a stock model with no changes made.

Be sure the ones you look at purchasing don't have polymer parts. I have seen and repaired/replaced the internal fire control parts on those budget AR's like selectors and hammers.

I don't want cheap junk just a reasonable Ruger or MP.

Here's a rifle kit, head to your closest gun store and buy a lower (under 100) and assemble and choot it

If you stretch that budget to ~$800 you'll get a lot more bang for the buck (pun intended) plus probably save money and headaches in the long-run. "Buy once, cry once."

 

[SoloLobo]

Paying more isn't always the answer. I've bought many high end products and been disappointed with their quality, service or both.

As with any product, it's diminishing returns. I believe all factory AR should include, at minimum:

• Reputable manufacturer with good QA and warranty.
• No plastic major parts.
• HPT and MPI BCG.
• Property staked gas key and castle nut.
• Threaded barrel with modern profile and twist.
• Nitrided barrel and bolt.
• Free-floated full length M-LOK handguard.
• Better than A2 trigger and furniture.
• Quality magazine.
• Made in USA.

Imho these points are essential but also make for an optimal launching point: all the core features an AR 'needs' -- but with room for cheap/easy upgrades. Further, upgrading barrel/handguard/etc. will cost $$$ plus tools and know-how. (e.g. In the end, you're likely to save money by covering these baselines out of the box.)

In 2022, for a used factory AR that checks the boxes, you'll need ~$800.
