    500 dollars to spend on my ar-15. Optic or ammo?

    To better explain by the way I am a 15 year handgun enthusiast. I always had a shotgun and a mini-14 for hypothetical SHTF scenarios and rarely trained. However did train extensive with concealed carry pieces and shotguns. Also I use to hunt with magnified scoped rifles. I am now finally...

    500 dollars to spend on my ar-15. Optic or ammo?

    benezra said "Does your rifle as currently configured allow you to shoot well in low/poor light conditions or in hasty, non-ideal positions with no cheek weld, even sideways? An optic is far more than a replacement for irons; it does things that irons can't." That is the thing. My rifle is my...

    500 dollars to spend on my ar-15. Optic or ammo?

    Reading in to it more... Seems Clint Smith (I remember his name from when I use to read the gun magazines way back) the guy at thunder ranch is more than fairly reputable, but one of the best. And I happen to be close to this school. Now the question seems to be some ammo for use at this...

    500 dollars to spend on my ar-15. Optic or ammo?

    Nearest training is http://www.thunderranchinc.com/cost.html Only 70 miles from my home by chance, but 880 bucks. I am thinking I will hit this up anyway, it seems like good instruction by chance near me. Maybe use my current budget to buy required ammo for thunder ranch course. Get the iron...

    Proper Gun Dealer Etiquette?

    We have this pawn shop here that has a guy that hangs around in there all the time and offers almost new prices on used guns. I won't sell to him personally because I think he is reselling them to questionable buyers or he wouldn't offer 300 dollars for a 90% shotgun that goes for 275 new, or...

    500 dollars to spend on my ar-15. Optic or ammo?

    I have heard the conversion kits will ruin a rifle because of how dirty 22lr runs. Any experiences with them long term?

    If You Only Had Two Firearms...

    And oh yeah, talking "bugging out" TEOTWAWKI stuff, I would say AR-15 (if it can be carried out in plain sight, or you are in a vehicle, if not primary handgun) and a 22 pistol for hunting small game (ammo size, accessibility when you see game on the move vs a packed rifle, and noise).

    If You Only Had Two Firearms...

    Rifle (ar-15 for me) and mousegun (Ruger LCP for me). Can't get through body armor, or reach out and touch someone at 2-300 yards reliably without a rifle. Can stop a threat with one in home (penetration argument be damned here,you said 2 not 3!) in a marginal compromise to a shotgun though...

    500 dollars to spend on my ar-15. Optic or ammo?

    I have 500 dollars to spend for my ar-15. Optic or ammo? Before anyone jumps to conclusions I have a stockpile of ammunition for SHTF, and do hit the range bi-weekly for 60 or 80 rounds. However 2000 rounds or so would go a long way to making it weekly for months. Plus would make for long...
