Purchased my first AR in sep from Ken at nzar15, NEA 15 DMR model. Did a lot or research on the net about them and others and had a look a a chinese model. The yanks dont like the NEA probably because they are made in canada they like them in SA tho. The NEA has a lifetime warranty on the barrel not sure if the gun has a lifetime warranty aswell.
Seems nearly all ARs have gritty triggers usa made ones as well. (from what ive read on ar15.com)
After about 80rounds thru mine had no issues or stoppages at all, getting 1 1/2'' @ 100 using fiocchi 55 grain and the same with belmonts 60grain sp load.
Gun is settling down and shooting consistently good groups, The trigger was not nice very gritty and heavy so i have removed it and polished the sears no grittyness now but will fit a timney at some stage. Im happy with my purchase the only other ar ive used was a colt m16 awhile back in the military.
For just over 2k spent plus i bought a burris p.e.p.r with a leupold. There is no way i would have bought the chinese one for 2k from h & F which was junk in my opinion
Seems in the last month we are being flooded with AR15s and delta sector nz has a lot on offer with the bushmaster just under $2300
