In this episode, we dive deep into the world of AR-15s and break down what you’re really paying for at each price point — from entry-level rifles to top-tier builds that cost as much as a used car. We’ll look at what drives the cost difference: brand reputation, materials, manufacturing tolerances, and real-world performance. Do premium names like Daniel Defense, LWRC, or Knights Armament actually outperform mid-tier options from brands like BCM or Aero Precision? And are budget rifles from PSA or Ruger AR-556 truly “good enough” for the average shooter? We’ll separate marketing hype from measurable value, explain which features matter most for reliability and accuracy, and help you decide where your money is best spent. Whether you’re building your first rifle or upgrading your setup, this episode will give you a clear roadmap for buying smart — not just buying expensive.
