Default Armalite AR-30

Does anybody have one? They seem like a pretty good deal for a long range rifle, .308, .300 Win Mag, or .338 Lapua... I always thought they were more expensive then they are.

Which ones? The Armalite is about $1800, depending on options.

Ridge, isn't an AR-30 a semi-auto? You're suggesting something entirely different, a bolt-action, which is fine, and probably better for target shooting, but what if he just wants to go trigger happy? A guy could if its the .308, and maybe get 1 shot off every other second with the .300 Win. Mag., (Wow, that's trigger happy, I know, lol).

Now that I think of it, great suggestion, Ridge, lol.

Really?

I saw in a Barret magazine, they were advertising their AR-15's, AR-10's, AR-30's, and AR-50's, and they were all semi-auto.
But, maybe Barret and Armalite are different.

Younggun- Yeah, Barrett and Armalite are different. Armalites are bolt action.

RR- I thought his rifles were a lot more expensive then that, like over $3000. But thats good to know that there not, I'll have to keep him in mind. I'm buying a Benelli SuperSport first and then saving for a long range rig.

All three are Armalite rifles.

AR-15 semi auto



AR-30 bolt action.




AR-50 bolt action.






If you want the ultimate AR (m-16)styled rifle look at Cobb manufacturingand their rifle in.338 Lapua. http://www.cobb50.com/mcr.htm Top of page.
