Just ordered my Sport II!

[Garman]

Figured now was the time to pick up my first Ar since the prices are crazy good right now! After researching Youtube, this forum and others, I picked the Sport II because of all of the excellent reviews it had and it fit perfectly in with my budget of $500. I already have my Magpul furniture on the way for it. Will add a red dot down the road. Can't wait to get it!!

Good choice. Congrats!

Yup, good call. I think they're about the best bang-for-the-buck in AR's.

Be careful--The affliction can drive up the cost of your fun. Mine turned into a 12 pounder that I lug to the blind for hog. I do have other site options now though. Red dot, 3-9 glass and laser. The laser stays mounted all the time for close-range hogs.

Forgot to mention: The scope in the picture is my day/night scope for hog. The light on the front is the IR illuminator.

Nice setup Tinhack!!

Bought one too.
Its in the safe waiting for a good cleaning and warmer weather.

All you need now is a Red Dot , some spare mags, and ammo.

 

[Garman]

I have 4 mags so far and just ordered some ammo. The red dot will be coming in about a month!

My sport II is extremely fun to shoot, very accurate. Though I did put in a smoother mil-spec trigger and a 1-6 bdt scope.

I have one and it works great and comes with a good warranty.

Good upgrades for your Sport 2.

Still less than half the weight of an M60E3, yer fine

She's here!! Added some Magpul furniture...Magpul Miad still on the way! Feels great in the hand. Still need to clean and lube it. I am very happy with my choice!

Feels like Christmas, doesn't it? Did you choose a red-dot yet?

It sure does!! Actually I just went with an A3 Tactical red dot. It should be perfect for my needs. I came close to buying a Vortex Strikefire II but just didn't think I would get enough usage out of it to justify the cost.

I was very pleased when I found out how well my Sport shoots. Totally reliable so far and very accurate. I was able to shoot 6" groups at 200 yards from a standing position with no rest of any kind. I never dreamed it would be that accurate. I put the Strikefire II on mine but now I would almost certainly have gone with a Primary Arms Advanced which has the 50,000 hour battery life and is a very well made sight for about the same price as the Vortex. I actually just bought one for $70. The company got the mount screws wrong and other mounts won't work. So they sold them as defects for a greatly reduced price. I have a PA on my second AR and it works great. I don't even have a rifle picked out to mount the new one. I just couldn't pass up the deal. Apparently all the reduced price models have been sold but it seemed that way once already and they started selling them again.
