$330 shipped to your FFL 300 Blackout Am-15... Seriously?!

Heading out to my FFL shortly to pick up this $329.99 delivered rifle. As many stated, who needs another caliber so I am thinking about picking up a $100 Colt Competition barrel, detailed below. That would get me into another 223/556 at $430 (delivered, no tax), but have a much improved barrel, right? The barrel would update it from a 1:8 to 1:7 twist, 4140 to 4150V CrMo steel, and both are carbine length, 0.750" gas block designs. Or is this even the right barrel to replace the stock M4 profile barrel? Any thoughts or better suggestions to keep it at a budget build?

$430 delivered PLUS a brand new 300 Blackout barrel to sell and recoup a little money! Don't forget the new FH for the new barrel...
 
What optic would y'all suggest for this? I'm leaning towards the ACSS 1-6 Primary Arms. It has got some seriously good feedback on the interwebs....
