One of the guys at work just bought a piston driven AR last week for 1200 plus tax. I forget the maker. Nobody I ever heard of. He got a carbine. Brand new shooter. Just joined the NRA for life. He even needed advice on cleaning supplies, etc. One more dedicated shooter. I'll have him loadin his own soon. !! HA. Mike

Mike, I thought things were getting better but I saw a Ruger AR go the other day for $2600 ... and a Stag Model 6 (heavy barrel) go to $2500. The world is clearly going to end. I am just finishing up my second AR build in the past few weeks cause I buy the parts right (when I can find them) and can ask crazy money for them.
Problem is ... I end up liking them and keeping them~~~~~~Dummy!

Padre, you are a man after my own heart!
I always do that at the range. I scope out my prey, casually walk up and strike a convo with them and within minutes, I'm scrounging their brass for my own goodness... (evil laugh) Muwahahahahahahaha

I don't know of any "no-name" piston AR builders. Just because you don't know the name of an AR builder doesn't equate to low quality ... in fact it's often just the opposite. Many small custom AR building shops build AR's that are FAR superior to the Names You Must Know. Those big names ... Bushmaster, DPMS, Stag ... even to a somewhat lesser extent, Colt ... are mass produced conglomerations of mil spec parts. Mil spec doesn't mean better ... just within tolerance. That's why a lot of AR's from the big names rattle like a can full of marbles and shoot 3 MOA. Small shops that take a bit more time can pick and choose parts that fit together better than just mil spec and can easily shoot sub MOA.
