[QUOTE="cal7.62x39, post: 3334157, member: 6824"] So I have a stupid problem. I just got my new AR assembled last night and I really love the value it presents. I got it for a good price unfinished and had most of the parts to finish it laying around. I am about $350 out of pocket for this rifle including shipping, transfer and the LPK. I bought and assembled it for the purpose to be my knock around truck gun. Here is my dilemma, in the box I get a sheet showing other products from DPMS and I see a model that I fall in lust with. It’s the RFA3-TAC2, Its essentially a Dissipator with magpul furniture and a neato M111 handguard. I don’t like that it is a full rifle length gas system (I prefer mid length like the kit I just assembled). So here is where my need for instant gratification and never being satisfied with what I have millennial traits come into play. The TAC2 can be had for between 600-700$ from buds or gunbroker. Do I sell what I just built for a purpose on Armslist with some mags and ammo to get the $700 mark and switch up to the TAC2, OR do I nut up and be happy with what I have knowing that I bought it to fit a need not a want? I will probably never use the tac2 for anything other than range plinking, and it won't ride shotgun in the jeep like what I just got. I guess the other option would be to have a low pro gas block installed on the one I just got, then have a dummy front sight block put on so as to turn it into the dissipator style, but then I am defeating the purpose of having a no frills low cost truck gun by pumping money into it just for aesthetics. That's just more money that can be invested towards more ammo and range time. What I just bought. [ATTACH=full]156037[/ATTACH] What I think I want. [ATTACH=full]156039[/ATTACH] I should be happy with what I've got provided it shoots well, I think I just needed to think it through, but what are your thoughts as well? [/QUOTE]
