I recently purchased the Troy PAR National in 5.56x45/.223 Rem. Over here in Connecticut we have an "assault" weapons ban and this rifle was specifically designed to comply with the law without compromising ergonomics. It is a pump-action rifle that accepts standard AR style magazines (limited to 10 rounds in Ct, but will accept larger ones too). There are more choices than the one I purchased. The short action is offered in 5.56/.223 and .300 Blackout, the long action is offered in .308 Win, and there is a special Mossy Oak edition that is chambered in .338 Fed and has a camo finish. The short actions have two options, Optics Ready and National. The optics ready package is the cheaper of the two and comes without sights and a standard buffer tube assembly with a standard collapsible stock. The one I purchased is the National, it ships with Troy folding battle sights pre-sighted and a proprietary 5 position folding stock. All models come with a threaded barrel and a muzzle brake to reduce recoil. The PAR National msrp is $1099 but I picked up mine new at the local Cabela's for $1049. That price may seem a little steep, but with our gun laws a pre-ban AR-15 from the 80's with a fixed stock, fixed carry handle and maybe 200k rounds through it will set you back at least $2000.

Maryland law is horrible, but not as bad as CT or CA (thankfully). Hoping to see some changes coming on the federal level soon.

@@AyaqGuyaq I was referring to the absurd price of a beat to hell AR that has changed hands many times. The local gun store was getting pre-ban AR's from the Texas department of corrections that you could tell had been used daily for 30 years, and selling them for $2k. I wish I had 200,000 rounds lol.

Lol, Name, then they can all "spit off" like the Sherriff's carriage in "O Brother, Where Art Thou?"

 

Then, and only then, you have to "R-U-N-N-O-F-T," ifn' by chance you want to catch up to "Mrs. Hogwaller," that is.

Edited because I'm not sure if I spelled "Sherriff" right--we don't have any in Alaska . . .

You are better off parting and building an AR yourself than buying one outright 9x out of 10.

way cheaper

true, but a pre-ban lower is basically the same price as a complete pre-ban rifle, which is twice as expensive as going the pump action route.
