I bet the Expensive AR Owners are wishing they would have put some of their $ into more Ammo instead of buying their $2k+ rifle...stockpile when you can, it makes for great peace of mind...what’s the point of a hammer without nails
Ammunition scarcity and prices keep rising. Get it while you all can.
I bet half the people in this country think "AR" stand for "Assault Rifle" because they have no idea what Armalite is
I've built every AR I've ever owned. The first one was less than $600. The second was around $900+/- but the third was almost $2k. I highly recommend trying it just to get a better idea of how they're put together.
(the best AR you should get)
*cries in australian*
So so happy i left there 2 years ago.
Thank you for being an honest man. Guntubers as a whole cant say the same. Goes a long way
Makes no sense to do it any other way. 😎🥃 cheers*
For the money the Ruger AR 556 is pretty good. Ive shot thousands of rounds through one with no issues.
I love mine! Put in a 3.5 lb trigger and it made a big difference.
I got this rifle the s&w m&p gen 2 is pretty good.
Ruger got it right with the AR556 and SR556/762, wish they still made the SR-piston models, love mine it's insanely reliable.
The Ruger AR and an AR from PSA are the best bang for the buck IMHO.
It's a great one.
Perfect response!!! Hit the nail on the head!!!
I love it when creators speak the truth
Catching up on your old stuff. This is absolutely the best advice for anything in life. You’re a legend. If only I could take your advice but… Australian… 🇦🇺
Primary point of a purpose- driven platform and secondarily familiarization is absolutely the right thing to say. A shooter just getting or building a rifle for simple range days and scarcely employed home defense is going to be night and day to that being used daily in work and advanced training in austere conditions-- if you're the former, definitely also recommend you save the money and get a simple yet reliable system (building a very decent mid-level AR will cost about 800 to 900 dollars at current prices of parts) and consider the point of purpose/ use and conditions (i.e. DI vs. Piston, Pistol or SBR vs. standard length, etc.) in relation to reliability and affordability.
Train, practice, train, practice, and train some more.
Best advice on first firearm purchase ever! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you Andrew. I was getting a little self conscious of my delton. But now I feel confident that it's the right gun.
Just seek training and you will be fine
Best advice out there to tackle this ages old question. Invest in your proficiency too.
One of the best break down explanations about how to go about buying an ar15 . Awesome mate
"Theres not one company that makes a perfect AR"
*cries in HK*
It's fun to have a "beater" to roll around with
Love my PSA AR15 7.5" pistol in 300blk with an Anderson lower.
It’s comparable to people at the gym. Idiots that think the more weight you lift the cooler you are while their form is abysmal. You don’t need a flashy, sexy gun to put someone down. You just need to be accurate.
The best AR? The one in your hand when the shooting starts.
...but if you suck at shooting due to no practice or knowledge🤔🤔🤔
@@GY6vids An AR in the hand of no experience is better than no AR in the hand of experienced.
@@T-DsGaming nicely said.
As with any semi auto or fully, spray and pray at that point. Even an inexperienced shooter can point a firearm towards the threat.
@@maddawgnoll People seem to forget this.
@@T-DsGaming but what if they have something other then a ar in their hands? like a shotgun? or a sniper?
Awesome to see you recovered and back at it! 🤟😆
Lol, I'm the same way... I like building and making it unique to me
Man u r talking so real, looks like u r ages doin it, pretty basic but very logical, I can tell u I have seen a lota videos of different folks but I never looked full of their videos but u made me looks urs because u were talkin very logical 😊
The M&P is all a regular guy needs. It goes bang every time. Don’t be a gun snob.
Very well put good sir. Proficiency is so important when shooting. Like you said I've seen people with gold shiny weapons and not hit the broad side of a barn and I've seen other guys snipe with a nerf gun 😆
Your perspective is very refreshing.
Always appreciate your outlook and attitude. Great content. Keep up the great work
I'd like to see a shooting comparison about this two rifles, just a fast shooting on some steel targets and a explanation about what's exactly the difference - what you say is practically go the way and practice practice practice and learn on the way, what's right, but everyone can learn faster, if he/she has a good teacher.
Wish I had this video a couple years ago. Thanks for putting this one out.
This is this the good sensible content we love!! You're the man andrew!!
Another great video. Solid work Andrew. Hope you're good brother!!!
you are 100 percent correct.your the man..............................
I chuckle at people who spend way to much money on an AR that a less expensive AR would serve them just fine and fire 10's of thousands of rounds they can't afford to buy!
Ammo and training is the best thing to do. If you have $2000 for rifle, buy $700 rifle $800 in ammo and a $500 training class.
If you are going with a 16 inch barrel get a mid legnth gas system. Soft recoil out the gate and less wear than a carbine gassed rifle.
Gospel.
Damn bro great video I had to sell my AR that I built at the beginning of the pandemic and I've been kind of torn dealing with this exact situation. Also I'm Andrew to!🤙🏽
20 in long boi. Vibe checks
Well this is well timed. I just literally started my research for an AR.
S&W M&P Sport II. Done
@@grabir01 Thanks man. I really like what I’m seeing on the reviews for this rifle.
I've got the M&P Sport II and Ruger 556 and love them both. Triggers aren't great tho. Get a better trigger
@@arhoghunter01 Sport II trigger is great. Best of any stock AR I have ever owned. I own 2 of the Sport II's Great Factory trigger. Less than MOA too
Go buy a blemished complete PSA lower . Then go to MAS defense and buy a complete upper with a BA barrel. That’s what I did yesterday. Now I have a very solid and complete 300blk rifle $495 all in.
Edit: I don’t suggest buying a rifle/pistol chambered in 300blk. Ammo is too expensive now. Especially for someone just getting into shooting.
I paid $400 for my first AR from a friend, swapped the handguard on it for a $200 Vltor handguard and swapped the polymer lower for aluminum. After a while the trigger pins started coming lose and kept popping out and locking up my trigger. Turns out, it was just my anderson receiver was damaged. So I traded the old AR for $650 (he bought it for parts) twards a new AR platform I built with my buddy who is a gunsmith. By the time I was done with my build it was roughly a $1200 gun that will last me the rest of my life.
Excellent advise !
Great video. Totally agree
I got a a pre covid ar price of around $500 really accurate already switched out gas rings ejectors and an extractor and added BCM parts runs great.
Excellent Content Andrew!! God bless ya Bro :-)))
S&W is on My radar
LMT , KAC , Centurion , BCM , Hodge , DD , LWRCI IC DI , Radian , ADM , Noveske & Aero M4E1 are all rock solid
The statement that covers it all is "mission dictates weapon"
Also I'm tired of never getting your notifications...I blame yt wannabe overloads
Great answer. Keep it up!
now i think bout it, same could apply to getting a new car, get what u can afford and work ya way up.
Well said!
Great information, get an affordable AR then spend money on ammo and training. Both will improve your game and make you appropriate the sport.
LMT, POF, Knights, DD, LWRC....about in that order....imho.
Excellent video.
Thanks!
Check out the Texas company Black Collar Arms. I have 2 and they are very well made.
Man... you sound like this guy I worked with at sportsman's warehouse. Haha Like I've always said, shot what you're comfortable with. If it's not comfortable you shoot like shit, and the price doesn't change that. Good to see you brother. I'm in Montana now, living off grid in a fiver until I find the piece of heaven in looking for. Then, I'll go there in a destination trailer. Hopefully stay off grid. Nice not having this bills
This is a well pointed video. In probably going to get me an AR soon as I get my commiefornia license changed to Montana.
Hahaha hey Kev!
Build one in 7.62x39, affordable and plentiful ammo, even by today’s standards. 30 caliber, it is deer legal.
I’m in the process of getting to know AR value choice
Words from a God, thank you
Has anyone ever chambered an AR-15 in 7.62x39? I want an AR, but can't find one for under a grand now and good luck with ammo... But I find 7.62x39 easy... I know, sacrilegious... 😒😒😒 Great video BTW!!!
Yep, it's not uncommon to chamber an AR in 7.62x39. I'm currently building a pistol in 7.62x39. You need a different bolt than the standard AR-15 bolt, and you should get a 7.62x39 specific AR mag for best reliability.
@@QuitoQueso 🙏🏻Thanks
Thanks, Andrew. I really wanted a 9mm Colt Commando and currently I'm thinking about how to hunt feral hogs with an AR-15 where 300 Blackout is the suggested ammo. I've seen articles on converting an AR platform gun from .223/5.56 to 9mm and to 300 BLK. I wish GY6 had covered which brands are easiest to customize in the mid-price range.
Great video, much appreciated! For someone looking to get their first AR, it would have been helpful to at least know some of the brands, including for the 2 ARs you were holding, that are the cheap and expensive brands.
Don’t worry about brands, buy what you can afford, and build from there.
This video wasn't about brand, and I don't think he should have disclosed it. That would take away the credibility of the video and what he is pointing out. Keeping it non biased was the best approach
Great video Dude
I’m a Mid Grade Guy
ammo > guns
Yup
Started cheap, now run a 3,000 plus BCM 14.5 with giesslie SSA. Even milled the lower myself with my CNC . Be surprised how far a cheap AR hobby can go.
What’s upppp brotha miss ya bro I’ll see you at the tourney this month!-
Ramon
Cheers dude
great video...
Any recommendations on good lower receivers? With the Cali unban I want to buy some incase they ban them again.
Buy anything, and everything you can get your hands on. Newsome won't let that last for long I'm sure.
Aero Precision/ SanTan Tactical/ Primary Weapons Systems/ POF/...long list of solid Milled Receivers out there. Take your pick. If you have the extra $, go with a Milled Receiver 7075
renamed.... the best AR I could never own.....
sharpening chainsaw as we speak.....
chainsaw mods hard to come by....
Thankfully i dont need a red dot or magnifier...
N x
Good video. I mean I never had interest in an AR until I shot my friends. Now I want one but just as an "experience" gun as prefer other guns for precision or self defense. So for me the M&P Sport II is probably a good fit (not sure yet though).
Palmetto for us poors 🤪
Where did you go?
As long as it's full mil-spec it's a good AR.
But there's better than mil spec. Way better.
When buying mil spec, it doesn't guarantee quality. Just that it would meet the specifications that the military has defined. The problem is the fact that they use the term mil spec all the time. It's terrible to think that it's become a sales tactic
@@maddawgnoll not the commercial hype. I mean real 7075t6 stuff.
@@dearbulls I understand that. But I wanted to let others know also. Gotta do some research on it before buying. Just because the gun guy behind the counter says mil spec, doesn't make it quality. Some people just hear the term and they're sold.
Soooo...”Mil-Spec” means it’s Justtt good enough to make do for infantry military members...and also cheap enough that the Government will buy it for all those soldiers...Tier 1/SF guys get much better gear, and most of it isn’t “Mil-Spec”
Mil-Spec has been used to bait unknowing potential buyers into thinking something is “High end, cause the military uses it” when that is just a load of BS. It’s just bare bones GOOD ENOUGH to get by without failing horribly.
@@GY6vids LOL. Daniel defense is still "mil spec". tier 1 definitely not using more non forged billet "premium" receivers, which is a real hoax. This is what I meant. I'm not saying mil spec is god sent or how good it is, I'm just saying that should be the baseline.
Damn straight
Good video, bro. What pistol grip do you have on the FDE colored AR?
Ergo grip
Buy tons of ammo? Yeah, right.
GRATE CONTENT 👍👍🤠
Me, a non-American: “What is dilemma that you face?”
Too many choices is our dilemma hahaha. Unless you're from one of those states that doesn't allow these styles of rifles
Easy to say out of New York State where I live where they deformed rifles are legal
Are there any good books on the AR?
👨🦼
What does a gas system look like?
DI or Piston
LE 6920
I haven't seen anyone give an actually model number like that. 👊for that
Palmetto... Accept no compromises.
Shitty ARs really..
Is the cheap one a Windham lol
Howdy man
are u Captain America for halloween?
♥☺♥
I'm a ak guy lol
😁
DB-15. duh. lol
First.
More important to remember: always go with whatever makes you look cool. Because otherwise why bother?
😂😂😂😂😂😂

@0:24 call bs an average american is not going to out shoot an m&p sport II not happening, if your not competing or sending thousands of rounds down range monthly/yearly, an entry level AR will serve you just fine, ps police officers including swat us the sport II and they are professionals, youre not
