buk wanna buy a wasr for 300 and ship it to me for 450, make some money.
just went to the gun store yesterday, and seen what looked like an ak on the wall and ran to it, ended up being a WASR 3 (.223) because CT is homo and any ak type that fires a 7.62 is banned. it was 790 and used. no thanks

They undersize the gas port and they will short stroke with cheaper ammo.
Also, the M4 feed ramps are undersized and not the correct angle.
Stag is not the only manufacturer to have these problems.

Wow, for ------- under a grand, damn man get it asap. DPMS before all this ---- with Obama happened was running like $1300-$1400 if that. If you break it down, it is cheaper if you are planning on shooting like 500rds every few months because the availability of .308 vs 6.8. What are you thinking about using it for?

Re: Olympic Arms AR-15
probably just to take out once in a while and shoot at stuff in the woods and possibly to defend against a zombie take over. not sure if ill ever need a gun that shoots accurate at 400 yards. i dont want 2 .223 guns but i also dont want to pay $1/round. i usually blaze through 200 rounds at a time. kinda up in the air but i do want an AR of some caliber.
