Ive been looking for a new R-15 or R-25 and haven't seen one on a shelf in almost a year.
I wasnt seeing them even before things got crazy.
Did they cut back production or did something change I dont know about?

Has anyone seen one and where?

I called Federal Way Discount and they said they can order me one for $1089 which is fine... but they said they can't guarantee they'll get it in the next 8-10 months.
I realize there are a few on Gunbroker and other sites but the selection there is even very limited compared to other AR-15 platforms.
Thanks

I ordered one in December, camo in 22" and it's not in yet. ;)

I finally got a hold of someone there today and they don't have any.
Per the guy in the gun area...
They've only had 2 ea. R-25's in the last 10 months and they both were used and there on consignment.
They haven't received a new R-15 or R-25 in over a year.

Does it have to be a Remington R-15/25?

You could probably buy or build a very similar, superior AR rifle for the same or less cost.

Thats a fair question.
You can ask this question about everything you buy... Does it have to be a Chevy when Dodge makes a comparable truck for similar money?... etc.

I just like the Remingtons. I like the look and finish and configurations they come in.
So in this case, yes, it needs to be a Remington.
Prices on AR parts have come down but I still think it would be hard to build a comparable rifle for the same money but I am no AR expert.

keep looking, my R15, 22inch,  is more accurate at a hundred yrds than both of my custom rifles, shooting factory hornady 53gr, most accurate rifle i have ever owned at the hundred yard line.
