That'd be awesome man, I turn 21 in march and I'll be looking to purchase then after I get my ltc.

Sounds about right I was also looking at the DPMS ar 15...I'm assuming most of them are very similar.

My suggestion... compare a glock to one of the other popular polymer frame semi-autos before deciding. I absolutely hate the grip angle on glocks and would never buy one for that singular reason. They just feel so uncomfortable in my hand compared to my XD and M&P... and I'm far from alone in that opinion.

as for ARs... before you decide anything, read this:

It is considered the be-all, end-all of AR15 info on teh internets. It's quite a read, but has pretty much everything you could possibly want to know about purchasing a semi-auto .223 AR.

I personally have a CMMG, but basically anything you buy in the "Tier 2" group should pretty much go bang every time you pull the trigger if you keep up on basic maintenance.

and since I assume you enjoy tinkering, as most car enthusiasts do, you may also want to consider building your own AR. I've found I enjoy gun modding almost as much as car modding. :)

all ar15 are alike. Their very easy to maintain and clean, plus you can take two pins out and swap complete uppers. Dpms rra lwrc s&w colt bushmaster I mean there's just so many companies making ar15s now and days. At the moment I'm building a sbr 9mm ar15 with a spikes lower and plan on running a swr trident 9 suppressor. Just stay away from Olympic arms. Their a piece of ****. But realize the ar15 is a system there's so much stuff out there for them.

Thanks man there is a lot if good info in there, the glock 19 and ar are on my list as of right now. Anything else I should look into?

glock 26 (smaller than the 19 but still 9mm) I love my 1911, they can be had for a variety of prices and sizes as well... truly my favorite gun I own.

I'll check it out

At this time no but if i do would be around $800


At this time no but if do would be around $500


Citadel has been traded for a OD Green Springfield XD 5" Tactical :bigeek:

yes, like I said, I would advise not to settle on a glock until you've compared it to it's polymer-framed competition:

shut up you!

see i have missed a lot not being on all weekend ha..

Went shooting at target world on Sunday and took the girlfriend...( she had to start with a .22 revolver, started grouping in the center after her first 6 rounds) she then moved up to the G19 *which CK, i highly suggest picking up the 19 :)* i have decent sized hands and it fits perfect and really comfortable*

I also shot a Walther p99 and it was mehhh to me, maybe im just not a big fan of subcompacts?

My girlfriend and I put about 300 rounds of TulAmmo through the G19 and must say it will be the last time i buy that ammo for target shooting


Also picked up a 33rd magazine (which i stopped loading at 29 bullets, I need to wear this spring in a bit i guess hahah, or I am big puss) and tried out some holsters.. (target world did not have much of a selection, still undecided, leaning towards crossbreed) the Desantis N87 is not the most comfortable thing but carried all this weekend and i guess im getting use to it...

i got 32 into mine the first attempt. Let it sit a few days then unloaded and reloaded it and got 33. Those last few can be a bitch until its broken in.

I was breaking a sweat for realzzz trying to load it up haha ill try again later today since it was sitting overnight

you guys are pussies... use the speed loader I gave you steve.

waiting on a russian stock set for my mac90 ak47, cant wait for it to come in.

haha I did and still got stuck at 29 :screwy:

Also on my LTCF everyone else I have seen has a scan able bar on the back of the car and mine has nothing, everyone else I have seen is a legit card, and mine is just a laminated card? :bigeek:

mine doesnt have it either, guess it depends on when people got them. i got mine a week after i turned 21, im 23 now. i remember when i was a kid and my dad had his, it didnt even have a picture on it.

Ya I was thinking it was possibly the place, but the kid I went shooting with this weekend got his like 3 months ago at the same place as me...

I just wasn't sure if they had like a temporary period and you get the other one in the mail, since i was handed this LTCF on the spot..

Also just tried loading the last few into that magazine and "like a glove" haha

yea they gave me mine on the spot too.

LOL.

Did I mention I don't like glocks? :mrgreen:

Hater :mrgreen:
