Thanks for the advice. Send you a PM to see if you have a parts list.

What's the price point for that one?

I'm sure that's a hell of a firearm, but a little too rich for my first.

I am not trying to blow off your advice. Exactly opposite actually. Since I don't know really what will work / want, I think buying the sportical and upgrading as needed is a good way to go. Since the AR is piecemeal, I can upgrade at a future date. I just wanted to get others advise and maybe look into building. Though, even though I'm an mechanical engineer, building a firearm scares me a little.

Recommendations? Parts list?

Ok. Ill look into those. I guess I need to decide which ar to get. I might just get the sportical and upgrade as needed

Cash flow .. now it feels like I am at work. I can afford either route. If its going to be a lot cheaper to just buy the 3G1 I'll go that route. My wallet will cry, but whatever. I was thinking of the tac30 1x4 scope and the Burris P.E.P.R. scope mount. Expensive, but seems to be the right thing to get. Will this be adequate for up to 200 yards?

I can get the sportical for $594 with shipping. Is the 3G1 which is double in price worth it? Pros/Cons to upgrading over time? Again thanks for all the tips / advice. I really appreciate it. The online auctions seems more expensive than the stores (maybe due to shortages).

Thanks for the article. DPMS has a 6 - 8 month lead time currently. Just found some in stock at buds. Any other online retailers?

My range has targets out to 200 yards.

Any specific one you can think of?

Where would you get it? Price? I've seen it recommended all over the place

It seems like everything there is out of stock.

I am completely new to 3 gun, though it looks like a blast. I already own a Glock 17 and a Remington 870 pump (not idea I know, but its what I use for dove/duck hunting). I would like some advice on an AR though don't want to spend over 1k. Most advice I have seen is pushing towards purchasing a $1,250+ AR. What are your thoughts? I'm sure this has been discussed before, but would like to be given specific models. There are just too many choices out there to dig through. Thanks in advance.
