Radical Firearms FR16-5.56SOC-15RPR, AR-15 Rifle 5.56 Nato, 16" Socom Profile Barrel, RPR Free Float Rail - 30 Round Mag - $349.99

I like my Andro. It was my first. But if I did it again, I'd buy the Radical because to upgrade the furniture I'm spending more than I would have for the Radical with the nicer B5 furniture I like. If your fine with the milspec grip and stock, go Andro.

If the Anderson were substantially cheaper, I'd give it a shot. No warranty. So any defects you discover you're on your own.

Honestly they're all about the same. Id even go as far as saying the uppers and raw lowers are probably of the same manufacturers. There's only a handful of suppliers for such parts in the US. It just comes down to features such as a preference in furniture, or the muzzle device, etc. I would buy the Anderson rifle if I was buying. Anderson has been around much longer and has most likely better QC than the smaller companies like Andro corp. But again I think they're all good budget rifles. You can always upgrade parts down the road to suit your personal needs. Good luck!

No unfortunately Maryland is another communist state that does not allow their citizens to purchase what they see as "assault weapons". Regardless of modifications and or magazine capacity, they still don't Allow the AR platform. They are right up there with California on the fight to take away everyone's right to carry, purchase and exercise the 2nd amendment.
I could never live in a state that has all these restrictions. I currently live in a state on the brink of such madness (Oregon). We have the libtards up north in Portland, and the Californian border 20 minutes from my home and we are the last holdouts fighting off this stupid legislation. I've lived here my entire life as have my family but if it ends up being a restricted state, I will have to say goodbye to my home state.

You should be fine. I have several Radical rifles and pistols and I have never had any problems with any of mine. Obviously they are "budget" guns and you have to keep that in mind. They are not as "refined" as some of the high end, much more expensive firearms but mechanically they work. They are a good platform to customize your rifle they way you'd like it. Let us know how you like your rifle. Good luck!

I agree. Not too many better offerings at this price point. For an every day, range, self defense type rifle this is a solid deal. Radical makes some worthy budget guns.
