hmmmm, i think it happens with everyone. i donno how a person can go off one other persons opinon when buying somthing. i did alot of reading last winter before i ordered my gun, lurked in alot of forums, read alot of reviews, watched alot of youtube videos. honestly one of the only reason beside reviews being good and a friend at work and my barrel builder friends saying RRA was a good builder was that it had all the add ons i wanted. i get a kick outta people who are like OHHHHH DPMS,RRA, Chevy, Ford, Yamaha, Kawi is grabage i knew a guy who had a cousin whos brother had one of those and it was poop you shoudnt buy one of them. glad you were able to get your hands on a RRA drop im alil jealous, i wish i could have, i wish it would have came in in the 3-4 month window it was suppose to, but oh well. maybe when im in the market for a 5.56 ill get my hands on an RRA.
