I ran across a pretty darn good deal on a Eagle Arms M-15 made by Arma lite. It has the shorter barrel (don't remember the length), the four position collapsible stock, and fitted with a heavy barrel. Fit and finish looked damn near new. The only sign of wear on it was a few brass marks on the brass deflector.
I understand Eagle Arms is a subsidiary of Arma lite and may have used Eagle Arms as the name for their sub-grade Ar-15's?
I've read on a forum that the Eagle Arms rifles were usually cosmetic defects. Also that the Eagle Arms brand were only warrantied for 1 year as opposed to the Arma lite lifetime guarantee.
The guarantee means nothing to me. ...nor do the blemishes for that matter. But I guess I'd like some opinions as far as where the Arma lite brand falls in terms of desirability, quality, and fit and finish compared to Bushmaster, Colt, and the slew of other manufacturers out there.
I know, I know, I'm leaving the country in 6 months, why the hell do I need another gun....
Because I can, damnit!
And it's only $450.
Thoughts?
