I’ve had the RRA Entry Tactical for about a year now and have had the same experience - over 1000 rounds, no hiccups or malfunctions except for a couple of sloppy reloads. I’d recommend RRA to anyone looking for a good, basic AR.

We just had a multi-page debacle on RRA. Unless folks have something particularly topical to the OP and that particular model gun, everything else has already been said and additional posts here seem superfluous.
I took it to a smith to have it done properly.
I kind of thought this thread was about through anyway…
I did a search for RRA and couldn’t find the thread you speak of.
Care to provide a link? I’m just curious to read.

How bad is RRA?

May I ask why you are having it engraved? What is your next plan for it?
Material of the barrel steel?
Material of the bolt steel?
Is the bolt shot peened?
Are the bolt and barrel high pressure tested followed by a magnetic particle test?
Does the chamber gauge out at 5.56mm NATO?
The bolt and barrel are the heart and soul of the rifle.
These are pertinent questions.
Getting it engraved for a Trust in the future. Also have a Charles Daly lower getting engraved that will be built into SBR pretty soon.
Let me be specific. Are you going to use the RRA to build an SBR? If not I am trying to make sense as to why you would engrave a lower for a trust unless you are going to SBR it.
In the future possibly but I couldn’t pass it up for $15 for a professional job.
Correct me if I’m wrong but can’t you have firearms with the Trust engraving that aren’t SBR or anything NFA as long as the serial is not registered? That was wordy I know…
I have no idea what you just said. You could probably engrave all of your weapons if you so desired, but it would serve no purpose. A trust is generally used by personnel to buy and hold NFA items, not everyday off the shelf firearms.
Ok, yes. I am just engraving it for future SBR if I want to because the gentleman that is engraving them has trouble setting his engraver for a lower since he usually only does award plates and such. So to save him trouble and me money, I had him do them both for $15.

Glad there’s been no hiccups so far, sentimental value goes a long way…I have a Glenfield Model 60 that’s had about 40,000 rounds through it, the rifle used to belong to my uncle then my father and now myself. The barrel is now becoming loose inside the receiver and there is about a 1/4 inch of wobble at the muzzle. Being that it’s a aluminum receiver the possibility of having it repaired is not likely but I’ll hold onto it none the less.
You get a lot of extras with an operator. I am very pleased with mine also.
Whats up with that vertical grip? Does it have a bipod coming out of it?
It looks really long, can you go prone with that?
Also dont understand the bolt on gas block with sling attachments, would think if using a sling it would come loose.
These grips are really nice. Good height from a table.
Yes. My elite comp feeds, extracts and ejects flawlessly so far. Accuracy wise, 1.5 - 2.0 Moa with run of the mill M855. I’ve never shot reeaal niiiice match ammo through it, but I’m sure it could do 1 Moa with a good load.
I love the RRA tactical break. Particularly the glass breaker/ DNA collector edge on it. It’s damn effective for $35.
To the OP:
Not to be an ass, but what kind of courses are you hitting that you’re just now breaking 1k?
That’s a military issue vertical grip that has a spring loaded bipod that pops out with a button on the back. It’s a little heavier than most but going prone actually works well with a 30 round mag.
And I’m sure the coming lose part could happen. Poor design in my opinion but since my scout scope prevents it from being used anyway it’s ok for now.

Haha yeah it’s pretty nice. I have accidentally gouged my table when breaking it down for cleaning though:bad:

No, you’re fine man. I said courses of my own. I own 18 acres of land so I set up various balloons and run a 3 gun course. Usually I will only put about 4 rounds in each mag so I can simulate tactical mag changes etc. A lot of it also simulates some training from my own USMC experience and some Chris Costa stuff.
That’s really neat. I stand to inherit a Walther PPK that my WWII vet grandfather owned and carried that my father now carries. Good stuff.
