I have had mine for 2 years and I used it when I worked armed security. Lightweight and never failed me. I have put at least 5,000 rounds through it with only one malfunction

I have a slightly different version, the Tactical CAR UTE 2. Flat top with fixed rear and front sights that co-witness beautifully with optics. I like the fixed sights as opposed to the flip-up BUIS. In my humble opinion, two less movable parts that Mr. Murphy can get his grubby hands on. Can't speak highly enough of the quality of Rock River products!

Best .223 for your money, I never had an issue with the weapon, but did have some trouble with some no name magazines causing it to jam. When I got rid of those I got rid of the jams. Great gun I love it. In tactical situations, or just thrown rounds down range you'll never regret buying it.

I used to sell a lot of these back in my gun store days. Best bang for your buck if you are not a die hard fan of another brand. Rock River meets or exceeds military standards and currently has a notewrothy contract with the DEA. They have excellent customer service and you can get what you want factory installed (some items at no additional cost) so you are ready to go when you pick it up. Accuracy and trigger mechanisms are excellent for those who are little more stringent on those qualities. Very competitively priced, you can't go wrong.

I love my RRA Elite A-4 carbine. Rock River makes great weapons and the quality is very good. The only downside is that they haven't gone to a piston gas system yet, but it's only a matter of time......

RRA Elite M-4 with medium handguards Sitting in a Eagle Assault case with a Viking V-Tac sling. On top sits regular iron sights with an EoTech 522. It has the most smoothest triggers I have ever felt on a stock AR. I took it hunting last fall & on doe day, I hit a small doe on a flat out sprint / run- Three in the box, one in the shoulder & one miss using this EoTech & rifle.

It is a very well made firearm, I own one and my agency has several but it does not hold groups as tight as my Bushmaster or Colt. With the Colt I am sub MOA at 100 yds, MOA with the Bushmaster and very slightly above MOA with the Rock River. Besides this little issue the rifle is outstanding and has not sufferred a malfunction in just under 6,000 rounds of ammo on the range over the last two years.

This weapon was just added to our department inventory, replacing the crap Ruger mini-14's we were carrying. Since I also use this weapon in the Army, I've been quite happy with its performance, durability and ease-of-use. Well worth buying...

Easy to shoot and incredibly accurate up to at least 300 meters. It is easy to carry as long as you need to carry it because it is also light. Anyone who has ever shot the military M-16 will take to this weapon immediately and enjoy shooting it as well. The only negative in the civilian model is the lack of a three shot burst, but that could be a bad thing in many circumstances anyway! Glad I have one.

Damn good patrol carbine. Though I prefer the .308cal for it's barrier penitration and it's stopping power, the .223cal does have a reputation of excellent accuracy and serves the needs of a patrol carbine round well. Rock River also makes a very good quailty product.

I use the Colt M4. I think its awesome if anyone remembers using the M16A2. That thing is heavy the recoil kicks like a shotgun and is a pain to clean. The M4 on the other hand is great. Collapsable stock, you can add rails to attach lazer sight, night vision accessories, and a fore grip for CQB.

It's what I carry over here in Afghanistan. Although I have a sight on mine for close quarters combat. Mine also has a flip up removable rear sight and the rail system in place of the hand guards. No cool attachments there though cause I'm not combat arms. It is exetremely reliable though.

SHeriff bought this rifle as a patrol rifle for shift guy's. We have all the bells and whistles, tactical light, laser sighting, and combat harness. Only draw back is that there is not a rack for storage with all the accessories on it. Otherwise great tool. No we can even the odds with the bad goy's.

I have mine with the flat top and fold down front sights. I put an EOTech sight on it and it rides with me in the unit every day. The shotgun may be the patrolman's nuke, but ever fewer will argue with an AR. Rock River makes an outstanding unit. My advise is buy it, practice and have it with you.

I've had the M-4 Carbine for a short time only. I have added a night vision scope (also usable during daylight hours). Gives a range of about 200 meters at night and limited only by the max effective range of the weapon during daylight hours. Also have a pm137 flip up rear sight if I decide to use the iron sights. Mine has the Pic. rail instead of carry handle. Most versatile weapon I've ever owned. Rock River Arms are affordable, functional and reliable. I love it.

Dead eye dick accurate with EOtech sight system, only wish it had gas piston and it'd be +1. Hadn't had any malfunctions except with crappy ammo, never had a problem with remington or other brand name ammo except for wolf but thats to be expected sometimes. I got mine for 1200 back when gun prices were starting to rise but mine came with a nice heavy duty aluminum quad rail and an EOtech Dominator 2 mount that RRA manufactures. Great Rifle thats all i can say

I have had zero problem with my beloved Rocky. I have two co-workers who had problems straight out of the box. A third ordered a rifle with a custom forearm. It took months longer to get the rifle then he was told. When he got the rifle it had the wrong forearm. After numerous unreturned calls and a laundry list of bad customer service he got the rifle back with the right forearm. I took weeks longer than promised to get it back the second time. My rifle has been good to me but I won't buy RR again.

I have the RRA Elite M-4, with Eotech 512, UTG mounted light, vertical grip and 2 point Blackhawk sling. Fired over 1200 rds so far with various types of ammo since I bought it and not one malfunction. Rem, Win, BH, Speer and cheapo russian stuff and it functions flawlessly. I had a Colt CAR- 15 for over decade previous to the RRA and I'd put both on the top shelf for best carbines.

We use these weapons as 11 bravos, I prefer the m4 to the m16 mainly because it is not LONG! I understand that the m16 is more accurate but i still prefer the m4's colapsable buttstock. I have a ganster grip on the one I carry along with a pressure switch for my peq14 so it makes it even better!

I have had at least four of these and they have always been accurate and reliable. 300 yards SUB MOA was my norm with
TAP ammo. Make sure that you get the freefloat and spend the money on Optics. You wouldn't put E85 in a race car and expect to win.- Flag as inappropriate
