Hi all,
In anticipation of October, I want to pick up an AR. Money is tight right now though, so I figure a good way to secure an AR is to pick up a receiver now, and finish the rifle later.
Now, I'm no gunsmith, and at least for now I don't want to fiddle with 80% lowers or even stripped lowers and parts kits. I'm looking at this completed lower:
http://www.stagarms.com/tactical-lower-half-5-56/
I also noticed that I can also buy the lower without a stock, for 100 bucks less.
-Are there any glaring issues with this lower?
-I assume installing a stock isn't too difficult?
For reference I'm looking to have a 16 inch barrel whenever I get around to finishing this. The rifle would be mostly for range fun and defense; not looking to compete or anything
Thanks in advance!
