#2145834 - 02/09/12 11:12 PM Remington r15 review
Though my wife would shoot me with it if I brought information technology home, I am looking at a Remington r15. Any reviews? The but hang up I take seen with it is the trigger but I am guessing that is a standard effect with the platform. I am a princess almost triggers, so it might be a deal breaker. Besides, what is a good price on i? Edited past Yoteless in Ohio (02/09/12 11:13 PM)

I'yard sure at that place are amend AR'due south, but mine is very authentic and does everything I want it to. I am going to modify the trigger,though. It's not terrible,only not the all-time.

I noticed in this process that the fire control grouping in the R15 seemed pretty... well for lack of a ameliorate word "chincy". It was all metal, but it was nowhere near as robust as my milspec build. I am non one of those guys that everything HAS to be milspec and all that only I trust steel barstock over tubing anyday. That said, the burglarize shot dandy and had a better trigger pull than mine. Seem to be bully rifles, and realistically yous'll never probably demand the beefier parts of a milspec AR unless you become the permits for full auto fire or get dumped into the sandbox. If the R15 is exactly what you want, go for it considering it is a nice rifle. If yous find yourself thinking yous might want a couple things changed, build your own. One thing to think nigh if you're OCD similar me is that information technology will be near impossible to friction match that camo if you want to switch stocks, grips, or forearms. If you're a tinkerer, build it. If y'all just want an off the shelf rifle that works, the R15 is for y'all.

It was a solid shooter in manufacturing plant class but it became a dandy shooter when I installed a Rock River 2-phase friction match trigger in it. Made all the difference. The R-15 is a solid option. If you like it dont hesitate. You could do much worse. _________________________ "When the Turkeys ain't gobblin, It'southward tough to make em stop."

Die Hard Member Registered: 01/06/12 Posts: 956 Loc: Noyotes, OH	Thanks for the comebacks. I would probably want to change the trigger then as I am used to my 2.5 pound no creep rifle triggers. At present to just convince the wife....she does non like the idea of the ar platform. She is Canadian and they don't get it up there. She ok'd a browning bar but they are definitely more expensive and the one I desire is hard to come by. And not near as cool looking.

There are a lot of aftermarket triggers out there. ARGold, Timney, JP, RRA , Just a few of the many options. I put jp springs into my RRA trigger to get to the 2,5lbs pull but information technology is still a 2 phase trigger.

Die Hard Member Registered: 01/06/12 Posts: 956 Loc: Noyotes, OH	I was going to inquire nigh accuracy. I am looking at the smaller lighter one, tin can't think the model. I think they chosen it carbine. That will bear on accuracy with a short barrel. My current .223 is a tack driver. Hoping to become something that will print reasonable groups. I am looking for information technology for close combat in the forest anyways, so I gues it isn't that important. What kind of groups are you getting with a stock gun and trigger?

Die Hard Member 2 Registered: 12/21/05 Posts: 1274 Loc: Wyoming	The accuracy is enough good for coyote hunting. The only existent upgrade I tin can see correct away would be the trigger. You can shoot the factory i as it is non as bad as some, but you will want to eventually upgrade it. _________________________ "It's a rossi, butt length will have little to practice with how innaccurate information technology is.

You can exercise information technology cheaper with quite a few dissimilar manufacturers. They are a good gun, simply im a cheap skate, and its fun to build your own.
