I am 54 and have numerous shotguns, rifles, handguns, etc, however I have never owned the AR platform and never really saw the fascination. I am not new to firearms. I just never did much research on the gas operated AR systems. I guess that will change after today. I bought an ArmaLite A4 Carbine today for plinking and to learn more about them in general.
Based on my discussion about wanting to plink and learn, this is what I bought along with 250 rounds of ammo and a manual rear site to get me started.

I am ready for class to begin, so tell me about what I bought. What is good about it? What is bad about it? Was it a good choice for starting down the road into the AR world?
I hope to clean it and get it sighted in while off work during the holiday season. BTW...do AR's like to run wet or dry lubricated?
