now is not the time to get into AR's. they are going 2-3x what they should cost.

if you can get the important parts even.

then there's the ammo shortage.

I was just curious... ONSSP almost bought me an AR for Christmas instead of the shotgun, but she did right, because I really wanted the shotgun... however, she's mentioned a few times that she should have bought it so we could have sold it and doubled our money... To which I responded, "yeah, but then I'd buy more motorcycle parts and other guns." To which, she responds... "glad you like your shotgun." lol

Thanks for the info! I knew about the short barrel rifle registration but, didn't make the connection with the abbreviation. I never had any interest in AR's. I like things like the Garand. All the accessories are just bulk to me and the gas operated guns are just too damn loud for what they are!

I agree. And I'm in line for an M1 and carbine from my wife's father.

I'd be all over the springfield if it wasn't so much more expensive. Honestly the day I bought the AR-10, if I had another $600 I would have bought the M1A Socom. Still kinda regret that

Nice to see that some people in Hollywood still have some common sense about them.

Back before prices got crazy you could easily buy kits containing everything except the lower for less than $500 no problem and lowers were available for under $100 (before transfer fees). As an example Del-ton offered a bunch of kits for different configurations, each having a ton of options. There is a link below where you can check them out but everything is out of stock with no backorders.
