Do a spikes tactical kit instead
And iron sights can hit up to 300. Don't waste money on the optic. Train with irons first
>>
>>31229308
listen to this fag about the spikes, ignore the advice about skipping out on the optic. See shit better and being able to hit things easier isn't "wasting money".
>>
>>31229224
>FREEDOM
DON'T DO IT

As someone who loves PSA. "Freedom" means "cheapo", it's their level above PTAC. Get either "Premium" or "CHF" if you want their best stuff AS YOU SHOULD.

>>31229224
that's not a "build" you colossal ignoramus

why are we rating your age
>>
>>31229722
Get chf or premium, keep the optic.
Get some back up irons and get at least decent at them but optics are just that much better and easier to shoot out of.

Looks pretty good though, if you don't have the money for the chf save a bit longer until you do.

>>31229224
Learn with the irons then with optics.
>Why?
So you can shoot with or without optics.

Not OP but I just went to Spike's web page and 2 things are apparent.

1) Their site is HORRIBLY designed
2) There do not seem to be any rifle kits
>>
>>31229224
>FREEDOM RIFLE KIT
you should save up like $100 more and get something that isnt garbage
>>
>>31229637
It is if you cheap out on a shit tier optics and mounts
>>
>>31229821
How shit do you really have to go with it. My friend had a $40 burris scope with UTG mounts and his AR stays zeroed.

psa is fine, but pony up for premium or classic.

optics are all user preference. i'm borrowing a buddy's aimpoint micro right now. I don't use magnified optics because I look at my rifle as a defensive carbine. It's really hard to justify self defense past 15 yards, and those distances rarely exist inside homes. Red dots are little weight and easier than irons. So I'd start on iron sights and see if you can borrow a scope for a bit, then a red dot for a bit to sort of decide which one you want.
>>
Make your first rifle as quality as can be with your budget. Skip the optics for now. You can always save up for quality later on. Put that money towards better base parts.

fuckin this. I went 7 months with just irons on my rifle. I'd go back to it if I had too. But I'd never willingly go back to milspec triggers after getting a SSA-e.
