My ar is a coyote hunting gun out to 250 yards. As I am thinking of buying a second lower for up close shooting I hesitate to buy the tools needed to install a free float hg or spend 230 on an omega rail. Beyond money I just do not feel comfortable working on my gun to that degree.

I will install a trigger though. And am trying to decide between a Gisele SSA or an omega rail if really needed

Does anyone here use a non free floated ar for coyotes or smaller and found it acceptably accurate?
