HI,

I will mainly be target shooting, wont get much of a chance for any hunting, maybe some goats on a farm. Unless situation changes.
Maybe competition shooting.

There are also some good second hand options on trademe at the moment. (A Rock rivers lower with a NEA upper).
Its really hard to know for a first time AR purchaser.

Forgot to mention, I shoot left handed. And understand the S&W no longer has a case deflector, which could be an issue?

Cheers, v.
