·hey everybody... was at the pawn shop this weekend, just kinda peeking around. ended up picking up a Bushmaster AR-15 M4 A2. It was used but in pristine condition. looks like it hasn't been fired very much. they were asking for $879 but i walked out with it, a soft case and sling for $750 (tax included). only came w/ 1 ten round mag but i'll be fixing that in the near future.
looks very similar to this one here at buds:

4 position stock... kinda wish it had the detachable handle but not that much of a deal breaker. gonna shoot it w/ the iron sites for a little while before adding optics. couple questions to the populace:
1) Scope recommendations for <$100. this will be for fun only... i'll be shooting out to 100-150 yds.
2) interested in getting some accessories for front end. how easy is it to change the hand grips? if i get one w/ quad rail, can i do it or will i need to take it to a smith?
3) if i don't go that route... i've seen the little "tower" extensions on the barrel that have picatinny mounts. what do people think of those? (seen here)
