Cocked & Locked Nice tool the Duke would be proud

you mean Ghillie dont you? And I wasnt a sniper i was an armorer. I fixed what they broke. ACBMWM3 no insult was intended and you are correct my typo Per. FM 23-10 page 4-4 figure 4-1 "Ghillie suit" So nice tool good shooting

You gotta remember I was in the marines. Im used to a M24 sniper system in .308/7.62x If you were a Marine Where is the "Guilly" wrap

I look at it as there are plenty of better guns out there(GO FN) But the History and the feel is hard to resist. AR is something you are issued or born to love. All i can say is" If your gut is telling you you need one" then buy one that you feel is good for you. You can always modify it later...

I use a 12X12 steel plate about 3/16" to 1/2" depending on what I can find at the machine shop or cardboard. set it at 600M + Reference FM 23-10 for set up instructions, but to make it short you sit, pron, standing. A sling is used most often but a Bi pod is ok.

This is just my experience. Don"t mix the two Home Defense: Semi auto. Because when you are under stress the average home owner is not trained to withstand the blood wrenching reaction you get. just keep pulling the trigger until the threat is gone. Hunting: Bolt action, remember "One shot one...

if you are limited by price then buy what ever you can find and afford. But if investment is where you want to start a AR -10 is not a bad place to start.

http://demigodllc.com/~zak/firearms/6.8SPC/faq.php This has range data up to 800 yards. At 800 yards it has a 1175 FPS rating. this is done from an 18" barrel so it may change the data a bit with the 16" barrel. I own the 6.8 SPC M4A3 but use it for "Close Quarter " drills so far so good

I was always told the top 3 makers were Colt Armalite Bushmaster. Never have gone wrong with any of them. rest well you did good.

As I said in my first post on this thread and of which alot of us have touched on, Price,Need,Location. So you know your price range you can afford,so most important is what do you need it for or better yet want it for. Once you have answered that look at the field tests and find out what is...

Then AR is what you want. Bushmaster,Colt,Armalite. I own the Bushmaster M4 A3 in 6.8 SPC it is modular good stopping power and reliable. I trust it with my life.

machine guns, "assault weapon", "assault rifle" dosen't matter what it is called. Semi- auto what ever is the only thing you can buy at your local dealer with out a class 3 dealer license. If you want safe and afective home defence buy a shotgun with DH shells.
