[QUOTE="MacFromOK, post: 3153275, member: 40864"] Thanks guys. :) It will take a bit to absorb all this, but I'm really thinking about buying one before long. At this point (from the recommendations/links), these seem to be among the best options for AR newbies. Correct me if I'm wrong. - AR-15 style (lightweight, most popular). - 5.56/.223 (preferably a Wylde chamber). - Good quality BCG (bolt-carrier group). - 16" standard (non-heavy) barrel. - 1x7" twist rate for heavier bullets (55gr & up). - Mid-length DI gas system (non-proprietary). - Staked gas key bolts (lol, whatever that means?). - Mil-spec buffer tube. - Factory recommended buffer/spring. - Mil-spec trigger (single-stage). Still gathering data... and thanks again. :drunk2: [/QUOTE]
