A new M4 hits the market!

[NightFighter]

Just got off the phone with them and they said that they are about a week out from from FDE and OD AR's.

Newbie question: what does FDE and OD mean?

[Jay Cunningham]

They are colors: Flat Dark Earth and Olive Drab.

The Bolts and barrels are MP tested only (not HP).

Every bolt is MP tested, but believe the barrels are batch tested

Bolts are shot peened.

The BCG's are CMT (stag) and that is why they are not done properly.


I have worked out a deal with the manufacturer to sell me the complete guns withouht a BCG. Now I will be able to put a BCM, LMT or G&R FN contracted BCG in the gun.

How much would one of these ADS rifles run if an LMT or G&R FN was used? Would you consider the ADS a good entry level AR?

They should be about the same price. I would consider the ADS AR's above an entry level AR.

The BCG's used (CMT) are VERY good and should not be viewed as lacking IMHO.

Thanks for the clarification.

Grant,
Are you saying that at approximately $825 I can have a resonably good AR ?
One that a newbie like me could go out and use for home defense, range fun and later carbine classes with out having to spend a ton of money for upgrades just to keep the rifle functioning? Sounds to good to be true. I could actually have money left over to buy fun things like rails and lights and stuff. I am not trying to put you on the spot I am just asking a question that is on my mind.

If you read the specs on the first page of this thread, you'll see this rifle is quite a bit better than just a "reasonably good AR"...especially since Grant is upgrading the extractor springs and properly staking the gas key before he ships it out the door.

Hello Grant,

Is the shelf machined low enough to readily accept a RDIAS?

Thanks.

Does ADS offer a carry handle with the flat top? If not, do you have any in stock? Who makes them and how much are they?

I'm considering purchasing an AR-15 before the end of the year. right now its between the S&W MP15 and the ADS. It seems like the ADS is going to be the better choice so far.

[Lawdog-1]

If I were you I would pass on the on the S&W MP15 and get the ADS.
