That's an awesome chart! I've only fired an S&W, but that's the only gun I've fired that gave me a bit of a chubby.

BTW, you do not want a class 3 liscence. It's a total PITA unless you're actually dealing a lot and making money. Having the feds watch you is not fun.

I didn't want to either but my dad talked me into it. It came out awsome and a lot cheaper for a lot of custom pieces. Easy to do. Buy the upper already assembled if you want.

So how accurate are these, and how much does it differ from the 16" to the 20" models? Kinda been wanting one for a little bit and yall are not very good at talking one out of getting one.

Accurate enough that the US Army and Marines prefer the same setup. 200 yards is a very hard shot, regardless what these gun nuts say, LOL, and with these setups in this thread, a beginner can hit the kill zone with a little practice at 200 yards. Throw a scope on it and you have NO excuse for not killing anything under 200 yards.

Alot more accurate than you will ever be able to shoot... haha


See that white/black spec left center of the picture?
Thats a 1 gallon ATF jug full of water at 420yds. Ive been able to hit it every other shot with my basic M4 Iron Sights.







Theres a better picture for you to see the actual range.. the tree line is 500yds. The targets are 80yds from that.




Yes im proud of my private range..
So dont be hating.
