I've read the AR sticky thread end to end, along with a LOT of info out there on the web. But I'm probably more confused now than I was when I started! I was hoping I could get some specific advice, based on my situation...
I'm looking to pick up a complete, finished AR platform rifle as a range gun and insurance against whatever comes after November.
While I understand the best value is in a "build your own" scenario, I am not ready for or interested in building my own at this time. However, I'd also like to get something where I'm not going to feel the need to "upgrade" 4 or 5 components immediately and spend another 50% of the original cost.
My budget is roughly $1000. Though ideally, I'll be able to squeeze an inexpensive scope and/or some ammo into that price point.
I'm in MA, so limiting suggestions to those commonly available in MA FFLs OR those likely to be found via the NES Classifieds or Armslist would be appreciated.
I know, that's a lot of limitations. Feel free to ask any additional questions/clarifications as needed.
