    I would like to know the differences if any, between a match olympic arms lower and a rock river lower. Which is a better piece of work.
    Thanks

    I have a colt Ar15 Hbar sporter serial number sp 2440xx. I called Colt and asked what info they could tell me about it. The only thing they could say was it was manufactured in 1984. It was originally purchased by my brother new. He's now passed, but he had told me that when he originally purchased it could have been converted, legally with the right paper work, to a select or burst fire, Drop in sear. Any validity or now just family lore? Would a class III dealer be interested? If not B/S, any ideas on cost per year for the average guy to have a full or burst fire?

    I'm looking for one with no sear block. To be honest, I've only ever picked up a couple so wouldn't know where to even look for a sear block without one of each at hand.

    Can the sear block be removed legally with the ban dead?

    What serial number range would insure that I was getting what I'm looking for?

    TIA

    Looking for opinions on an AR. What I would like is a 16" barrel,223/5.56 with removable carry handle and ability to mount a scope or red dot sight. I really do not like the adjustable stocks so it should have the plain fixed type.Also,want recommendations for the action-- piston type or? This rifle would be fired sparingly. Probably 200 or 300 rounds per year. Reliability and economy are important to me.I do not want to build my own. Thanks for any and all ideas.

    Ive been listening to people that own the ar15"s and how you can switch and swap parts is it possible to switch a ar15 rifle to a pistol by changing the upper receiver?
