I know it was the wrong time to buy or build an AR but I have been wanting one for a while now.  When I was walking out of the local gun show a couple weeks ago, I ran into one of my old co workers. He loves his firearms and I knew he had a few AR's that he has built. So I asked the ultimate question, do you have one you would like to sell? He didn't want to sell his completed but said he would sell me a lower. I picked up his McKay lower with A2 stock and then found a Rebel Arms upper. The upper is a carbine with a 1:9 twist. It has a m16 BCG and m4 feed ramps. I now have some FDE furniture coming and a AB arms hand guard. I don't know much about the upper but they are actually built about to hours away from me. Looking at their website I decided I would take the chance. I haven't shot it yet to report how I like it but will update when I do. I have a total of $750 into the complete upper and lower with A2 stock  Not too bad considering today's market. I would love to post some pics but un sure on how to upload them.

| Well, Finally got to go to the range today. This thing ROCKS. I shot 70 rounds without one issue. shooting 55gr at 25 and 50 yrds I was shotting about an1" MOA. Current set up is a Magpul MOE rifle stock, American Arms Hand gaurds, MOE Grip, Magpul MBUS rear sight, all in FDE. I had a couple guys ask what make it was and when I told them I had less than $1000 into it they were surprised. Especially buying everything since Christmas. I give Rebel Arms 2 thumbs up at this point. Oh and I also scored some 30 and 20 round PMAGS at a local store for less than $20. each. |

I cant wait to get back to the range. If only it would warm up a little around here. I also bought my son a M&P 15-22 for his B-day, too bad his B-day isnt until May. I dont know if I can wait that long to give it to him though. Nice job and congrats. Definitely a win on parts in this market. Unique looking carbine you got there and glad it's meeting expectations on the range. As for the 15-22, sounds like it would be a good Valentine's day present for the kid. No way I could wit until May. |
