(5 out of 5) Amazing
by Briggs H. from Dublin, Ohio on May 28, 2024

This gun has performed perfectly. I couldn't ask for anything more in a beginner AR. It has not jammed on me and has been easy to attach accessories to. Best gun purchase of my life.

(2 out of 5) where am I hitting
by Jerry from Mount Sterling, OH on March 9, 2025

I used two types of ammo and was getting 2.5 to 3-inch groups at 50 yards. That makes it hard to sight in, and I was shooting from gun rests on a table. It did shoot with no malfunctions, though.

(5 out of 5) The Best Budget AR
by Bobby from Columbus, OH on March 10, 2025

This AR-15 can run with the big boys with no problems. Shot 450 rounds right out of the box with no issues. All you need is a good sight setup, and you’re good to go. I was hitting two-inch groups at fifty yards. I would definitely buy any Anderson over a Radical any day.

(3 out of 5) Shoots, doesn't chamber well
by Austin from Reynoldsburg, Ohio on August 15, 2025

Went shooting recently, decided to test out this gun and made sure to lube it up. Ran about 10 rounds, then had to keep cocking it as it wouldn't chamber the next round. Unfortunately, AM sold off to Ruger, so no warranty anymore. Had a few buddies try figuring it out, seems the bolt may be the issue. Tried multiple different mags, ammo, and more oil. Nothing helped, unfortunately. Shot great, just got annoying having to keep cocking it just to shoot again.
