This isn't exactly an AR-15 but thought this would still be a good place to post my question.
I was at the gun store today and saw a AR-15 or so I thought. I sarted looking at it and it turns out it is a 22lr gun. Not an AR-15 sure looks like one though at first glance.
So I was hoping for some more info on it before posiably buying one as I know nothing about them prety much.
Any ways I don't have a 22 so I was thinking this would be pretty cool for a 22. I have don'e some quick looking on the web and here is what I have found out.
I belive it is called an AP-74 and it is made in itialy by Armi Jager. I know it was made in italy as I noticed that on the reciver. I didn't look to see what model it was though Should have looked but didn't cross my mind untill I got home. I am pretty sure it is the AP-74 though from what I have found on the web.
The rifle feeds from a little mag that fits in the part of what would normally be a 20 round mag on an AR-15. It is a 15 round mag I think at least from the one web site I have seen on it says. It has a bayonet lug so it must be a preban. The idea of a bayonet on a 22 I find funny but cool. Has one of the old 3 prong flash supresors too. It screws off. The rear sight looks like it is adjustable for windage by use of a screw.
All in all looks like an interisting rife and it is $249.99. Is that a good price and are these rifles a pice of crap or are they ok. That just seems like a really low price for a preban anything.
