It's a Rock River. The only jams I've ever had were from bad ammo/mags.

Yeah, they have a discount for junior shooters. I think about a month after I bought it they upped all their prices, but last I heard a junior can still buy an AR parts kit for $900. The downside to a parts kit, though, is you don't get that nifty blue case, and you don't get any mags (though I don't know if you get mags with a full rifle, either).


$900 for a semi-automatic single shot rifle? (wow.)


You usually get one extra mag.
But something that's supposed to be used for 'target practice', you'll probably just get one.
Never heard about anyone getting no magazines.

Even milsurp part kits come with mags, unless the dealer or seller is being a dbag and sells the mags separately for profit.


Yeah, my kit came sans magazines. I bought five cheap-s**t steel mags for about $12. Three of them don't work right, so I converted one of them into a single-round sled. The other two need the guide fins adjusted and they should work fine.


That sucks.
But it accepts what kind of mags though?
It's an AR, through and through. Takes STANAGs.


Ah excellent.

Up in WA you can find a DPMS M4 18.5 inch rifle for around 899.99 ish...

the 20 inch barrel is a shy lower... but yeah... its all about the same price up there. I miss washington.

Well, this is kind of related by news I guess.

Anyway, my 1st favorite morning show radio thing was talking about the news story where this kid blew his or his friends head off doing something stupid.

Or wait, this is about the one of the guy showing off his AK and some other online;
"... an AK-47 assault rifle and an UZI assault pistol."
...
...
...
Mind you this is the same guy that says that if someone messes with his wife or daughter he'll blow them away.

I know he has to read a script for those things but I really expected more from him.

At best a civvie UZI is a carbine and the AK-47, what would you call a semi-auto only version of that?
Battle rifle?

Could be a Micro Uzi. That would probably just be a pistol.
