Okay, the next question is where can I get one?
I own an Olympic Arms 16” free floating bull barrel and am pleased with it. I would suggest a flat top and as someone said its about the sights.
Buy at a gun show, or a private owner. There are a ton of weapons out there that guys purchased, fired it once or twice and are now hard up for money. Deals are everywhere.
Enjoy.
Union, WV, Union Outfitters. For Under $700 you can have the Bulgarian, with all the bells and whistles like scope mount and scope, bayonet, extra mags (comes with two 30 rounders, IIRC), ammo. The rifle with two mags is $519 before atxes and backgrounder.
