An interesting read! And, nice vids, as well.
You know, I'm just a guy on somewhat of a budget that enjoys his 15-22. I don't hunt. I love the fact that I can buy the 300+ round of Federal 'Target' ammo at Wal-Mart, and shoot all day! And, my last 600-700+ rounds have all been shot at the local indoor range - out to 25yds. I love it!
I cannot wait to get outside with it again.
At the end of 2010, I did buy a S&W M&P 9L handgun for home defense, and target fun. Soon; I will get my carry permit.
But, I don't need an AR-15. Sure! It would be nice, I suppose. But, I really don't want to pay more for ammo than I already do. And, since I don't belong to the MSSA (Midsouth Sport Shooting Association) outdoor gun club, I would have no place to really shoot something like an AR-15.
I love my M&P 15-22!
And, since adding the Primary Arms Multi-Reticle Red Dot, it's even more fun!
