Hello K, I need some advice. I'm currently building another AR-15 and looking for the "jack of all trades" for my homestead. I'm trying to debate what I need vs what I want. I want this rifle to deal with most issues you can imagine a house in the country deals with, but I also want it for SHTF. That being said, I have a line of sight between four and five hundred yards. I already have a 16" colt AR-15, and a M1A scout. I'm leaning towards a 18" 1:8 Chrome Lined Criterion barrel with the rifle length gas system. Upper will be going onto a rock river lower with the RRA two stage trigger, paired with the magpul CRT stock. I'm also placing a Vortex 1x8 optic on it. The rifle should be built to last. Any recommendations or suggestions?

Don't get an RRA trigger, they start to sit out after 2-3 thousand rounds. Splurge for an MBT or an SSA. If you're only shooting from 4-500 yards, you don't really need an optic more powerful than a 1-5x. Also, don't quote me, but you may get better accuracy from a nitride/melonite barrel as opposed to a Chrome lined. Look at LaRue Stealth barrels, they're outstanding.

Thanks for the reply. I already own the RRA lower with the trigger but I will look at upgrading in the near future. As for the optic, I do agree that I might only need up to a 5x, but I wanted the little bit extra to help with target identification/spotting. Plus I already own the Vortex 1-8 so it's not anything extra out of the budget.

If you already own a Vortex 1-8, then that should be fine. I would definitely recommend upgrading the trigger though. Contrary to what the trips on /arg/ say, it doesn't really matter what your rifle looks like or how gucci your rail is. Find a setup that works for you. The only parts that you should really splurge on anyway are the barrel, BCG, trigger, and glass.

>splurge on BCG

Lol, there's no reason to do this at all. Your standard mil spec bcg will outlast most any gucci shit Bcg.

I'm not talking about a retarded ultra-light weight enhanced bullshit BCG, I'm talking like a Toolcraft or a BCM. Just not a trash PSA, Anderson or whatever BCG.
