nice.. my DPMS 5.56 oracle was a tack-driver.. didn't like STEEL ammo at all though.. your luck may be better..

break in with Brass.. IMHO.. try the PMC XTAC M855 from PSA.. best RELIABLE bang for the $$... IMHO..

Yea heard bout steel I only shoot brassl. Got bout 1k rnds stored away thus far. Put bout 300 rnds through already and so far it is very accurate. Not fond of the trigger but ill replace it soon.

Ty for the comments. Is it pretty easy to install a new trigger group?? I have never broken my ar military or otherwise down that far.

2 pins push out.. lift the hammer spring leg(s) off the FCG area PIN.. slide the FCG PIN out.. that will fall out..

then remove the hammer pin.. and that will let you remove that..

replace trigger set... 2 main springs.. 1 hammer and 1 FCG.. just make sure you don't lose the small disconnect spring in the FCG part..

eta 20 mins or less..

Looks like a good start for sure!!! How does it shoot?

Shoots very good. My 12 yr old was getting under one inch sg at 25 yrds frst time shooting. Course the eotech makes things easy.

I wouldn't go crazy for a two stage trigger for $120. They're out there for around $90 if you look. I like Armalite's tactical two stage myself. CDNN does have a couple Jard single stage triggers that look interesting though.

BTW, nice rifle.

Ok so two stage is sort of like the glocks trigger correct?
