I'm in the market for a new AR-15/M-4 style riffle. I'm not wanting one that breaks the bank, but one just to have a little bit of fun with. I would like to customize it with rails, red dot scope, forward grip, light and whatever else to make it "tactical".
In the past I haven't been much into shooting automatic rifles. I'm more of a hand gun and hunting rifle (lever & bolt action) type of person.
I'm familiar with the M-16 from my military gate duty days, but haven't picked one up in about 7 years. After shooting my little brothers Olympic Arms AR a few weeks ago, I fell in love and I'm wanting something to tinker and have fun with.
I've been scowering the net looking for good deals as well as hitting a few local shops. Some of the better deals I have found have been on budsgunshop.com (I've bought a few firearms from them in the past and they seem to have some of the best prices).
My question to you all is, what are your opinions of the two AR's I have listed below or if you know of something else in the price range of $600-$800.00 please let me know.
The two rifles I'm looking at are:
Double Star 15 -
Doublestar Star 15 M4 16" 6 Pos. Stock .223 $669.00 SHIPS FREE
DPMS A3 Lite -
DPMS Panther A3 Lite 16" $735.00 SHIPS FREE
I am heading to the 1500 this weekend to see if I can find a deal better than what Budsgunshop.com has listed or whatever you all suggest. I'm not making a special trip to the 1500 just to look at AR's but also picking up reloading supplies.
Thanks in advance ~ Matt
