Default That much of a difference between first and second gens?
Getting ready to purchase and looking at three very new/rarely fired 15-22s.

Both of the first gens are $350.00, however, the one also has a $50.00 red dot sight, case, 3 mags and foregrip that the owner is throwing in. Approx. 500 rounds through it.

The other first gen has included a foregrip, 3 mags and 850 rounds of Federal ammo with it. Never fired.

The new gen is $325.00 and has about 50 rounds through it with no goodies.

I've read about some spring issues with the first gen rifles?

Torn on which one with to go with and hoping to get some feedback. Thanks.

At those prices, hell, buy all 3!!!!

That's would still be cheaper than buying just 1 across the pond in the U.K.!

If I could pick, I would do the first gen with the included 850 rounds of federal.

I posted recently about my OOBS using the gen one springs and replaced them with the blue springs as purchased through this board. I want to clarify that I only changed the spring after I started to get more OOBS and being a lefty, this was problematic. I will note that I had shot between 15,000-16,500 rounds using the original spring.
