Happy to be here
Went back to Ohio this week and shot my Dad’s M&P10 and was pretty impressed with the accuracy/weight/price. So I started to look at alternatives and found it nearly impossible to find a factory built rifle with at least an 18” barrel, weight less than or equal to 8lbs, and within a couple hundred dollars of the Smith & Wesson.
That led me to wonder if it was even possible so I sat and put together the following and would like anyone’s input on the quality of this build. Prices were not researched closely and I imagine I can drop the total current price by shopping around.
Will it be reliable? Should I swap any of the selected parts? If so? With what? Anyways to shave 6ounces without shortening the barrel below 18” and increasing the price significantly? Or is the simple answer buy a M&P10?
