The Ideal Minuteman Rifle

The Minuteman Rifle. This author gets many gun questions every day. The most common, by far, is what type of AR15 to get and what modifications.  This post shall serve as the definitive answer to that question. 


RIFLE
There are many good brands.  A good 16" gun with collapsing stock will make a good base model for you. Get mags, get ammo, get training.  The rifle should have backup "iron" sights. Your rifle needs a sling.


OPTIC
The perfect setup for the Homeland Defender is a variable power 1-4x or 1-6x or similar.  There are many good brands.  Do not pay less than  $200.

If you really want a red dot, that's perfectly fine.  Again, do not expect to pay less than $200.

If you want a fixed low power scope, that is also perfectly fine.  Again, do not expect to pay less than $200.

Your rifle needs backup "iron" sights. 


MODIFICATIONS
1. Free float rail.
2. Trigger upgrade.
These two are a must.  All others can wait.
