Assault Rifle Newb


SN03

Recommended Posts

I've caught the firearm bug again & want to purchase my first AR-15 carbine. I have a Glock 30 .45auto, Mossberg 590 12gauge, & plenty experience with firearms but not so much assault rifles. From what I've been told the best way to go is to build one, but I don't have the time or experience to do that. Reading online it seems the S&W M&P 15 is the best bang for the buck on entry level AR's. I want a 16" barrel chambered in 5.56 NATO/.223 Remington. $1200 is the max I want to spend, under $1k would be great.

I know most of you probably aren't legally allowed to possess a firearm, but any info/advice is appreciated. :P

This should be my complete arsenal by mid-summer, funds permitting. I get near dealer pricing & all brand new should run me close to $2,600:

S&W snub-nose .38.................summer carry/backup

Glock 30 .45acp subcompact...concealed carry

Glock 20 10mm full size.........woods/hiking

Stevens Arms Co .22/.410......small game

Savage Axis .30-06..................large game

Mossberg 590A 12 gauge........home defense

AR-15 .223/5.56mm...............zombies, saint fans, etc

Wal-Mart has a Sig M400 around 8-900ish http://www.sigsauer....ifles-m400.aspx

An AR15 is not an assault rifle, only Fully automatics are considered assault rifles!

I have an Armalite and it cost about $1200. I have shot more than a thousand rounds through it without any problems. However, I would recommend saving a little more money and buying a Daniel's Defense or Bravo Company AR.

    • To me, this seems like they feel they aren't going to be competitive. I can't help but go back to Bryce. Good guy, but he doesn't inspire people to give it their all. He isn't a "leader" that people look to. There is no Smith, Delhomme, Kuechly, Cam, etc. coming in that door.  It has to be Bryce, but biologically speaking, how often is the shortest man in the room going to command the kind of respect that will drive people? It just isn't. That isn't how we are wired. That isn't how any living animal on Earth today is wired.  I just follow the science guys. 
    • Vick's issue with Reid was that he couldn't take a hit, and he wouldn't go down. Otherwise he was pretty good much of the time.  Mahomes has a system that works. Mahomes doesn't become Mahomes elsewhere because not everyone can extract 125% of the ability of a specific player like Reid can. Kevin O'Connell is beginning to look like he has that ability as well but I'll need to see how he does with his Redshirt Freshman.  I also wonder how much of their playoff issue last year was related to the offense as a whole and not just Darnold. Fans don't really dive into the "why" things happen, they just see the what and complain about it.
