I like the Armalite too. Hard to go wrong.

My SIL has an early(er) production Armalite and has had a few fit problems with other uppers. It's my understanding that they have fixed all that, and that now all is well. The thing I really like about the -15 platform is the option to swap out stuff. I can go from a PD carbine to varmint killer in seconds.

We've got a couple here that we noticed had better triggers. I checked with my buddy where we bought them and he pointed out something that's not "generally" known. At least I didn't know this! But he said that the lowers in those two rifles had National Match triggers but to make them "truly" National Match, all we had to do was swap the springs. :-)

My daughter has Armalite's SPR and it shoots particularly well! She outshot me last time out (I had a carbine) with a group at just under an inch at "about" 100 yards. :-)
