Yes B5 is a company that makes buttstocks and grips . And with the ones I’ve had nice grip on for the grips and the butt stocks are good and tight with no wobble. -

Truthfully , Some make it harder than it needs to Be . and well I earned my living depending on a AR base rifle. Was Unit weapons NCO and taught classes to other units , All based on what we learned for being deployed . Here are some thoughts on a few things and I am Not calling anyone out . But what is the main Reason behind getting a AR ? To overcome violence with overwhelming Violence . Period I wont depend on a cheap firearm . In the AR platform you have basic may Use Mil-spec Tolerances , most use Commercial tolerances and lead to more play and less accurate . For a First Time Buyer I recommend a Name Brand in the 800-1000 range , Doing This you dont need any special tools. Reasons why a midrange AR and for that I say 5.56 that allows you to run .223 you wont have to worry about running a certain ammo or not running cheap steel case ammo . There are 2 types of AR's those I would depend on in a fire fight and those I wont. In the AR platform you have basic may Use Mil-spec Tolerances , most use Commercial tolerances and lead to more play and less accurate Most fire fights will happen in the 40-75 yard range so a good Red Dot I prefer Eo Tech for more than the Basic Red Dot . Keep in mind the basic AR 5.56 round wont see past 3-400 yards MAX no need for a high Dollar scope on a AR unless its Built for that . I dont recommend a .22lr conversion , for 2 reasons 1) and goes into the the 5 P's if you need your AR and gee you left in the 22 kit and have 5.56 mags you are done . 2) a HK 416 22LR runs appx 450 and you dont have the Dirty crappy 22 round to deal with in your AR as the gas system is tailored for the 22lr. A conversion kit runs 230 ish -

Well as I build most of my own they are contagious For off the shelf and surprised I saw no one say one of the better one Springfield Armory the Saint is Nice good all around shooter For longer ranges I Have a ATC which in nuts on at 600 yeads Using both off the shelf 55 grain but shine using the MK 262 77 grain . Don't get into the adjustable gas systems (99.9 of those that have them don't know how to adjust them ) Do stock up on Ammo . Just a few hours I can go through 1-2 k for training 1400 today You might look into the 300 Blackout round but 55 grain 5.56 is more available and cheaper , but .300 will stop more Note you can run .233 in a 5.56chamber but not the other way around , except if it is .223 Wilde that's a in-between . I prefer chambered for 5.56 as thats what I run most of . AR10's well Different mags and well I have one in 6.5 creedmore (also the new MRGG ( Mid Range Gas Gun ) sniper rifle ) I can confirm its good out to 1000 yards . and You can do 7.62 but then ammo goes up. I am Not a Benchrest shooter I run my crap hard , full kit lets move and shoot but at 75 yards moving with a full mag dump in a few seconds .But then again 8 deployments will do that for you. This is 600 yards with a LVPO Primary arms 1-10 with 5.56 55 grain vs 77 grain Springfield Armory ATC Full mag dump in full kit Springfield Armory Saint 5.56 50-75 yards moving with EO Tech Red dot -
