I'm "in line" for an Armalite lower.

I've seen some on the auction sites, but most seem to be used and are overpriced. I'll just wait it out.

I was able to get Olympics at 135 annd 140 I can still get some Yankee Hill Machines at 135. I know everyone likes the ABC, Armalite, Bushmaster, and Colt in the past 7 years of buliding AR I don't find the vaule beyond bragging rights.
BTW as far as what is for I have used my CAR to pop critters in the yard including Coyotes, Porkypines and wood chucks here is one of my Home rolled.
RRA 2 Stage trigger, Shaw Fluted 16'' Barrel, YHM Railed Light Weight Free Floating Forestock Stag Left Handed Upper Reciever and Bolt Hogue Grip , Gemtech Halo Can, ATN Palidin Series Night Scope.
As for what I do with it? Just like having a bike that goes over 75mph .. I have fun with it
BTW Z06 once you start building ARs you find out they are like potato chips (or motorcycles) you cant have just one

removed burst claw, added titanium firing pin (ZERO slam fires for me thank you very much) pachmeyr grip, eotech, extended bolt release, extended bolt catch, ace skeleton stock (perfect length with my armor on and much more durable for hitting people with) and a ak-74 style muzzle brake (huge signature. but our acu's dont match a goddamn thing so hiding is out. amazing amount of muzzle control though and a must for automatic support fire) oh yeah, and i used hk mags exclusively. i kinda miss that carbine. might have to build a legal replica someday. fucker was accurate, and FAST as fuck. im talking target aquisition and servicing not rpm here

Dave which Eotech is that? I am using an older Eotech on my CAR and love it.
I have no expereince with the Aimpoints if you do how do they compare

552, its the night vision/AA battery model. and theres really no comparison. eotech is hands down the better sight. i'll have to see if i can find it but theres a vid somewhere of me and one of my counterparts firing auto at night. damn compensator puts out a three foot fireball!

I think we should keep this going so here is one of my ghost of winters past
Using an matched 0lympic upper and lower a 24 inch Fluted Douglas barrel, RRA 2 stage trigger, (polished well cause I have a dremel) houge grip 2 inch stock extension with 6 to 18 glass on top. Will routinely hold a 1/4minute of angle at 300 yard with 72 grain hand load. Just because you may have to reach out and "touch" Someone
