Ar-15 help please!

I'am interested in a AR, I found a new Eagle Arms M-15 w/ 16" barrel, A-2 sights, black stocks for $560.00. I know this is a good deal but can some of you give me some feed back on this gun.

If you save up just $100-150 more, you're close to hitting the A,B,C's.
(Armalite, Bushmaster, and Colt) Rock River is great as well, and even Olympic Arms is climbing the quality ladder.

Why don't you hold on just a little bit longer, and own the best? You're pretty close already!

Good luck!

I realize what your saying but I'am interested in this gun and was looking for feedback on the Eagle Arms. I'll be buying a DPMS Panther Sweet Sixteen from someone real soon also.

what's your goal?
if you have a DPMS on your radar, why not wait?
if you think the Eagle is a good deal, get it!
if the Eagle is mil spec, you can 'fix' anything that needs fixing:
trigger, accuwedge to tighten the upper to lower,
new bushy bolt & carrier (or wilson, baer if you want)
