There are lots of shooter quality, or better, sub $500 AR rifles on the market. Ars are cheaper than at any time in my memory.
I don't know anything about the company in the OP.
One time I took a $500 AR to the range and everyone laughed at me. Since then I only use Daniels defense or better. Who’s laughing now mom! I still have no friends but I’m at least one $500 AR less.
Sub $500? They were sub $300 on Black Friday ($299 + $17 shipping) lol.
I've had plenty of luck with my $269 PSA rifle kits (https://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-...516446411.html) and a $29 Poverty Pony lower (Anderson), fight me. Yes this doesn't include the 'labor' but is it really labor when you are building toys?
I mean, for what it's worth, the barrels were fine. Even better than average, on a 5x5 grouping basis.
More of a reflection of the fact that the internet is chock full of liars, and people feel bad paying for expensive stuff. Lord knows I have.
Wow!
At least with Colt, I know I'm paying for union quality.

In the end imho metal is metal and spec is spec. Most of the higher names still get supplied from the same makers as mid to lowend guys. Double check specs and what types of metal they use and buy.
To be fair, that price probably has a bit to do with Brownell buying a metric crap ton of them before the last election cycle and trying to get rid of stagnant inventory. Things do go on sale. That particular gun routinely went for much more than that. Prices have come down quite a bit for all but the best AR-15s on the market. However, that Aero Precision is still more than likely not an in spec Rifle. Castle nut not staked, oversized gas port, nitride vs. chrome lined bore, 1/8 vs. 1/7 twist rate, undersized H buffer, chamber etc. The rifle has probably not been test fired at the factory unless you get lucky. The manufacturer saves money by making you the end user pay to take care of those and other cost/corner cutting measures.
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.
