Last night, I zeroed my friend's new SW Sporter-2 flat top rifle with UTG steel folding sights. The rifle was very sweet, trigger is very nice for a factory rifle. Very accurate at 10-25 yard with Iron sights. After zeroed, my friend was able to shoot in 2" circle at 10-25 yards.

I know that is not remarkable, but I am not an Iron Sight shooter.

My friend ended up ordering a S&W MP15 Soprt II less than $500 delivered.

MSRP on both comes in at right around $1,000, but I’ll bet that street price would come pretty close to your $700 “maximum”.

Just a thought. Both are reputable gun manufacturers, even if both are pretty new to the AR world. Both guns seem to be well put together.

I’m seeing a Springfield Saint with free Float Handguard on Gunbroker.com for $799, and a Savage MSR Recon for $821.

My buddy is the new owner, It is his 3rd firearms. I hooked him up with USA made Caracal Enhanced F, an RRA 1911 Expert Nickel plated. And, no he wants a Basic M4 clone. I recommended FFloating Barrel but would be happy with something mlike S&W MP Sporter II. At Cabelas, I just manhandled said MP and it felt well built.

He is shying away from 18". Colt, he likes more. It may cost more too.

A friend is looking to get his first AR.
I recommended

1) Free floated barrel AR with M-lok or similar hand guard.
2) Flat top with drop down down back up sight.
3) Decent tigger
4) Reputable manufacturer and good quality build

Price: $700 level
