First Owned AR-15

[AManWearingAHat]

I would spend the money on the Geissele if you're planning on competing or using it for Home Defense. I found the Larue triggers have a pretty weak reset. My SSA has had close to 5,000 rounds between matches and range trips and is going very strong. Excellent break and a strong positive reset.

Went ahead and went with a 2 point sling instead.

Congrats! Do yourself a favor and replace that MI spec trigger as soon as you can. You won't be sorry. If you can't drop $200+ on a 'top shelf' trigger group (Wilson - Geissele - Elftman - etc.), take a look at some of the drop-in triggers offered by Rise Armament. For around $130 you can get a real decent trigger group that is waaaaaaay better than the stock one.

Triggers are everything. You can even get a 580 Ruger Mini to shoot well if you turn a good smiff lose on your trigger group.

Everyone needs a good carbine if for no other reason than "get off of my lawn".

Enjoy.

Looks like you're due for a revolver now.

Do you mean something like this?

That's what our house consist of as well.

Congratulations! That's what I have. I also put an MOE handguard on mine; much more comfortable than the stock. Check out the MFT Minimalist buttstock--nice!
Also, consider a riser for the scope, to get a better view over the front sight.

Looks like he has the MOE handguard already. I agree on the riser for the scope, I would even look at a quick disconnect. Then maybe he can fit the rear iron site on there as a backup. Otherwise, a solid first set up that will treat you right and go bang evertime. Congrats OP.

I have a Truglo 3/4 inch riser. With a red dot, it gives a perfect cowitness with irons, and the Magpul MBUS pops up right behind it. Using a LPVO, the folded sight is out of the way.
And yes, a QD sight mount is on my want list.

I sure wish I had an M&P-15 to post, but I don't. All I have is this modest Daniel Defense M4 Carbine 5.56.

I would be more than happy to help you empty your bank account on a few accessories. Here's what I have on this shootin' stick:

Magpul MOE Pistol Grip
Magpul Enhanced Trigger Guard
Magpul Rail Sections
Magpul Bolt Assist Device (BAD)
Magpul MS3 Sling
Magpul Rail Covers
BCM B5 Sop Mod Stock
BCM Gunfighter Model A44 Ambi Charging Handle
BCM Gunfighter Kinesthetic Angled Grip (KAG)
BCM Small QD 'D' Style Sling Mount
Troy Battle Sights (HK style front/flip-up rear)
Battle Arms Development (BADASS) Ambi Selector Switch
Norgon Ambi Magazine Catch
Sprinco Enhanced Buffer Spring
Spikes Tactical Tungsten T2 Buffer
Geissle 13" MK8 (M-Lok) Free Float Fore End
Battle Comp 1.0 Muzzle Device
Tango Down Stubby QD Vertical Grip
Wilson TTU 3-Gun Trigger
Aim Point T1 Micro Red Dot on a LaRue QD Mount & Tango Down Lens Covers
Millett DMS 1-6x24 30mm Scope on an American Defense AD-Recon QD Mount
GG&G XDS-2 Bi-Pod
Surefire M600 Scout Light with SR-6 Switch

Everything is Ambi and QD. Depending on what I type of 'activity' I'm involved in at the time, I can swap out optics and/or, add/remove accessories quick and easy, and the controls can be manipulated with either hand.

I think that's about it. Have fun!!!

That's no longer a carbine, it's a crew served weapon.

I hope you are enjoying your new rifle. Many have stated that ARs are the new 30-30. I think so too and keep one in the rack of my Jeep. It's my pest gun and I have killed a few whitetails with it.

If there is a Palmetto State Armory near you, maybe head over there and pay cash for as much 55 grain ball as possible. They also have a "parts kit" that seems worth while to me.

No one knows what 2020 will bring.

Made a few minor changes. Ranger plates for my mags, added the BAD Lever and the Sig Romeo5 red dot.
