    Default AR options in SA

    Hello

    Does anybody know who can supply me with the following. The goal is to setup a carbine length suppressed AR.

    1. Any “mil spec” (yes I know) standard upper and lower. No need for super expensive.
    2. Mid gas system.
    3. Heavy barrel 13”. I am sure its difficult to get so a 16” heavy barrel will work also. Can have a smith chop it down to the correct length. I will even settle for a standard 14,5” barrel.
    4. Some free float m lok hand-guard.
    5. I have big hands so the Magpul MIAD would be first prize.
    6. Stock trigger
    7. H2 carbine buffer
    8. Ase utra suppressor with flash hider.
    9. Magpul CTR would be great. But any good stock would be fine.
    10. 5.56.

    Any suggestions of who could help me with this would be great.

    Thanks

    Maybe give a budget? Options would probably be something like a Norinco or M&P15 or DPMS. I doubt you'll easily get a bull barrel. Maybe a DPMS Hunter might work? I don't know if Hailstorm sells them.

    Mid length is going to be difficult, I'm yet to see any budget Middy AR's in South Africa.

    Ok. To avoid confusion. I am not aiming to save money.

    Happy to spend the money.

    Buy once cry once and have what I want.

    Almost took the Sig M400, but it wont fit my requirements 100%.

    Seems we are limited in options this side of the pond.

    Grobbie, why decided against Sig M400?

    There seems to be a 10 fold increase in the interest in AR15’s since the lockdown started across the various forums and social media platforms I frequent...

    Good luck with the search and post photos once you’ve found something.
