Okay, first off I should say that Im new to AR type rifles, I have done a little bit of research as far as which brand I want to purchase. I want something short and accurate, Perhaps a V-Match, I like the Vmatch because I can get it with a 16 inch Barrell, I also like the Varminteer by Bushy, but it comes in the 24, and a bit heavier. I also want the ability to add a number of different scopes, red dots or even a carry handle, also ,maybe a flashlight. I see that Bushmaster has quite a few carbines, and just wondering if maybe I should get something else. I havent learned the difference between a M4, A2, or AK style, If you can point me to the right direction, I'd appreciate it. Also I read somewheres that some of the Ar's cant shoot all .223 ammo SAAMI, Milspec? Whats the difference? Thankyou for you help!

I dont know about the varmit barrels but the "MIL SPEC" barrels
are 5.56 NATO chambers and shoot all SAMMI spec ammo that I know of.
