Need Help With Choosing Stuff For An AR-15

dadasmithywinkle

Hey y'all, 

 

I need some ideas on quality add-ons for an AR-15-style of rifle. I need ideas such as stocks, sights, etc. 

 

Thanks for any help.

The bump stock seems like it would be a fun add-on

I've used one of those and while it was fun, it definitely had a learning curve and I'd rather spend half the price for a standard, quality stock.

Unless you plan to hunt with it then you're best bet is to get magpul flip up sights, and a nice muzzle break that compliments your recoil weak spots. Then a good angled forgrip. Other than that don't worry about it, the OEM stock is more than good enough and you don't need flashlights and lasers and PEQ boxes and all that shit. Also depending on the manufacturer you might want to look into a new trigger if yours has a shitty one.

Corsair M95 | SuperLux 668b's | Logitech C615 | ViewSonic VX2250wm | Random OEM keyboard until I rage break it and grab another random OEM keyboard from my pile.

Actually, I ordered a Magpul AFG in FDE. Are the Magpul sights good?

It does, but it'd be around $700 to piece one together and it wouldn't be very legal, especially here in California.

Bayonet always comes in handy.

They are my personal favorite iron sights, red dots and scopes are super nice but I personally feel you should have a set of really good flip ups that you are trained with before optics (unless like I said it is being used for hunting). My opinion flip ups are way more effective than red dots and with experience they can easily be used to shoot as far if not further than red dots. Having a decent scope to do some shooting out to longer ranges like 150m+ is always fun but I wouldn't spend money on that until you've put atleast a couple hundred rounds through the rifle.
