Ok my 15yr old has saved his $$$ & wants an AR. (He has $600 & I told him I'd throw in a lil extra if it went over, within a 100 or so) So we looked at a couple of shops yesterday & those two seemed to be the most noted names in that price range. The M&P of course doesn't have the bolt-assist & dustcover but how important are those?
Honestly both of us like the Panther but of the two listed, which will likely be the toughest, most trouble free with proper use & care?
I'm also interested in new uppers for either, for hunting in say the 338Fed & 458SOCOM. Are either lowers up to such task?
I'm ol skool with bolt, lever & pump rifles. All this AR stuff is new to me so in having to "catchup" to the boys (story of my life!
