It would take something truly extraordinary to make this

A lot has changed since then; the AR has a ubiquitous presence in the gun world. It is manufactured in scores of configurations by countless vendors. This is a stock rifle, right out of the box.  My initial impression matched that of the dealer who sold it- the cleanest AR either of us have seen out of the box.  The fit and finish for this type of rifle are superb.  To quote th
