Quentin2 I remember reading a bunch of threads a few years ago and it seemed like no one built a perfect AR. Everyone could find a flaw or lack of quality with every rifle made it seemed like.

The rifle I posted has the look I like. Is there something wrong with 4140 barrel steel? Are the upper and lower castings inferior? I really don't know much about ARs. Other rifles yes, ARs no.

Does anyone else make a lightweight 20" barreled gun with the fixed buttstock that would ba a better choice? I have no desire to build a gun for my first rifle. All imput is appreciated.
