Default Pre-Ban cherry.

thought you'd like to see this one. My Father is the original owner and now its mine. Its a very early Armalite Eagle Arms carbine in foctory OD green withNational Match everything. HBAR and muzzle tricompensator. It came with two OD green magazines and over the years Dad added lots of fun stuff like an Eotech Military and Magnifier.



Only three magazines of ammunition ever fired through it and its insanely accurate.

I have absolutely NO idea what that is. But I like the looks of it. Yeah, the description was given, but **whooooosh**. Over the head it goes.

Edit: I googled. Is this an AR-15? The rest of the search yielded lingo I could not decipher.

One of those 3 magazines fired was mine, pickenup. The sight system is the Trijicon. Out to 100 yards its about 2moa because of the dot size. At 50 yards its moa. With the Hensoldt Compact Scope at 100 yards from the Accurite rest its sub moa. The Accurite is pretty cool for proving or disproving handloads. Theres no excuses when you use it for groups.
Its an AR15, PharmrJohn.

Lots of folks never knew there was an entry line Armalite, while not the real deal, it`s close. Great starter gun for those looking to cheat a few dollars.

So, you know nothing at all about Eagle Arms and Armalite? Entry level? Hardly. Do your research before you talk about cheating dollars, bud.

Wow! Sorry you feel slighted. Eagle Arms(failing) was purchased by Armalite and was cheaper to buy than the real Armalite name brand, an entry level rifle from a quality company. Not the first to do so and just as Bushmaster was purchased by Remington. Damn!!

Springfield did the same with their XD-9.......as the HS2000 it was an entry level well built 9mm @under $200.00. Now that Springfield has it`s logo on it......it`s twice that. Hear those folks whining??

Get a grip......
