Best ARs on the market. Nuff Said.
There are certainly others that are better, but they cost more.

I am curious how the new one will shoot, I have heard some bad stuff about the new guns and quality control. I ended up going with a Bushmaster upper when I heard that.

What are some of these "horror" stories you've been hearing about???
A buddy of mine heads a junior high power service rifle team. He got them all RRA NM rifles and almost every one had problems. From loose sites, to barrels. Their customer service was also terrible trying to get them fixed. He said a few years ago they made some awesome rifles, then they got too big too fast and production went up, but quality went down. I guess most service rifle competitors have been experiencing the same thing. I know that he is super picky about rifles, so what may be junk to him, might be awesome to someone else. And btw, he is a Distinguished High Master, and one of the only people in service rifle to shoot a perfect 500.

Also, I have all RRA lower parts in mine, including the NM 2-stage trigger and everything seems to be good. The trigger is really nice.
