I haven't actually handled one, just came across on a website. There are no AR's to handle in my state.

I'm not super excited about the lack of FA and chrome, and I think I probably would lean towards a PSA or a 6920. (After, of course, we move to a new state)

I would love to do a build, I'd love to build on a RRA lower with 2-stage, and top it off with a nice mid-length 1:8 by a reputable manufacturer. But I haven't seen a way that I could do that for the price I could get a complete PSA.

I'm not a fan of carbine length on a 16" barrel, and I would probably benefit more from a 1:8 than a 1:7. I'd be shooting a lot of 55gr and not much over 62gr.

I've never owned an AR (or any semi-automatic for that matter), and if I do get one, it'll need to be pretty close to exactly what I want it to be, cuz I don't really have a gun budget which would allow for upgrades, mods...

Honestly I just want to have one before we get an executive order or something that makes them impossible to get.
