How difficult was removing the A2 sight? If I get one I was thing about a free floating hand guard, but I read some reviews that said it was a beast to remove it to install the guard. (just curious)

Unless you have all the tools already, buying a rifle configured with a free float hand guard would probably be about the same price after you buy the tools.

I change my mind Aero all day.

The only knock that I have against the Aero is that they didn't include a rear sight. Throw a cheap Magpul MBUS in with it and be ready to shoot out of the box. Specs seem very good for the money though.

I would order this S&W M&P 15 Sport II from Kentucky Guns and spend the money I saved on ammo... better buy than the Ruger or Bushmaster

Why limit yourself to what Academy has on the shelf?
