AR-15 set up....feedback please

[Jrabbit771]

I finally traded the TC Pro Hunter in for anther AR. The lower is a spike, bolt assembly by Rock River, the barrel is Citadel....I know nothing about Citadel....This is all I know.....16" finned, chromed moly barrel. 5.56 NATO chamber, 1/9 twist ,heat treated and air gauged. .936 Gas block area, extended M4 feed ramps....This is all I know....I've shot it 3 times now...The barrel has no markings at all. Kinda weird. Accuracy is actually pretty good. I've had it about a week...I'll post some pictures... The rail is made by field sport....9" Mid length Free float rail system. T6 6061 aircraft aluminum, Bead blast with type 3 anodizing, Precise CNC machining, Mil Spec 1913 Picatinny. Thats all I know...So the Citadel and Field Sport are the question marks for me. Okay enough talk. I'll post some pics so you can see what I'm talking about. I can always replace the barrel...

weird barrel. I kind of like it though. never ever seen one like that.

If acuracy is good, who cares who made the barrel!

 

[Jrabbit771]

That's what I'm thinking Kurt. So far so good....it's weird looking...but I like it so far...I was just trying to get a little info on Citadel...I've heard these barrels are supposed to be better then their former barrels....there isnt much on the net about them...

 

[jtischauser]

Unless it has a magpul logo or a deer head mark it ain't good enough for my safe. Just kidding! Like Kurt said WGAF if it shoots and runs?

 

[Matt1911]

I've never seen a barrel like that, it's definitely different.
If accuracy isn't hurting then keep it.

ribbed for your pleasure

Are you sure that isn't .45 ACP Caliber? I swear that barrel belongs on a Thompson 1928 A-1 SMG... Congrats, you have a gangsta-15

 

[Jrabbit771]

Gangsta...lol....Jesse I'm a firm believer in Stag. It was my first AR I bought a couple months ago....since then....I'm addicted...I hear they are coming out with a 308 later this year....That's what my gun dealer was telling me...I used Stag customer service a couple weeks ago and it was top notch..
I had my choice of getting this set up or another Model 2 Stag that he had...So I got this one for the "wife". The only site I could find Citadel barrels on was. http://www.shop.ar15hardware.com/main.sc ... They have several different barrels...The finned barrel like mine is going for 189.00... Now I just have to find a real light optic to put on the Stag for the wife....Something like an EO Tech, but half the price
