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.

    • Same... With the personnel the Niners had, that defense could have been historically good in the right hands. Under Wilks they were certainly good, they didn't quite rise to that level. Honestly, I see Wilks kinda like I see Rivera: fantastic person, decent head coach. Skill wise, phenomenal DB coach, so-so DC. His greatest strength is his leadership. Hard to find many better in that department. In the Xs and Os / execution area though, not as good. Bottom Line: Wilks is the sort of coach that needs a staff that excels in those aspects of the game where he's weaker. But, like Rivera, I don't know that he scouts assistants very well. That as much as anything might be why he's not in the NFL now.
    • Clearly the best outcome for us is a Giants W. A spot or two difference in the 4th round is inconsequential. Just look at the trade value charts. A spot or two at the top of the 1st means a LOT. A spot or two in the mid-rounds? Virtually nothing.
    • Agree. I don't think I have ever heard him say anything positive, at any time, about the Panthers. Best expectation is no mention at all.
