Wow, nice posts.

Not an AR platform, but I love my Ruger Mini-14....Gonna have some serious seller's remorse.

 

[w0ady]

when are you going to take me shooting with those?

 

[wricksta]

I've shot all of Jon's guns. The 700 is a badass rig! The glass is very crisp and clear. I think his favorite is his "old faithful" DD.

Just recently added two new rifles to my collection.

LaRue 5.56 PredatAR w/ 2moa aimpoint t-1(my favorite gun)

My 1st ground up build:
Novekse/Compass Lake Douglas Barrel/US Optics SN4

50yrds zeroing scope

My first firearm ever! 15 Sport 5.56

Only added a few cosmetic parts. I would consider the B.A.D lever a mechanical addition.

nice. we went shooting a couple weeks ago, he was testing a new 1911 and i was plinking with the 15-22. we really do need to plan a nice range day though.

I have 2 mini 14's one custom and a Colt Ar-15.
I looked at the S&W stuff but could see no advantage to owning a second AR-15 style rifle.
I purchased my AR because I wanted an representative example of the US battle rifle.
I probably will get tarred and feathered for this remark but I feel S&W is a hand gun manufacture making some of the finest revolvers in the world. Sure they make other stuff, how much of that stuff they actually make vs how much they re brand or simply assemble is a big question.

I am not saying this is bad I personally prefer to own the original and not the copy, even if the copy is better, hence I own the Colt AR-15,A Colt 1911 and I hate plastic guns so no Glocks please.

The S&W people are smart AR's are hot they make an AR
1911 are hot they make a 1911
Glocks are hot they make a glock type pistol.

[wricksta]

I respect your views and opinions as everyone has different tastes. While I share your opinions on the Colt AR15 and the Colt 1911(my father taught me to shoot with his 80 series). While not the greatest shooters, they have a sentimental place for me.

I took the liberty of bolding your contradicting statements. A mini 14 is a copied scaled down version of an M14. Not even close to the "original". Just my .02

lol my bad.

Thanks man. He picked out the parts himself(with a little fatherly advice lol). You gotta come out to the next competition with us. A big group from Jax usually caravans down. Hit up Jon.

ya the funny thing is i actually knew a few shooters in town from other stuff before i got into guns. small world. i dont have a real ar yet and doubt ill be getting one anytime soon but id definitely be down to try it out with my 15-22. my next gun gallery trip is to try out about 5-6 different grips to find whats best for me.

Bushmaster A3 a looong time ago. Got the 15/22 as a repalcement for a Walther P22 that broke the slide after 6yrs and 50K+ rounds. P22 were back ordered forever and was offered a trade for another gun.

Need to ad an update, just finished a 6.8 SPC build.
Surplus Arms & Ammo lower
CMMG 16.5 gas piston upper
CMMG lower parts kit, J&P spring kit and Flitz polished
Vltor stock

Here's the family, 15/22, Bushmaster A3, 6.8SPC

Holding at 2 for now

I resisted the urge for oh so many years. I finally gave in when the Sport came around - it was just too reasonbably priced to pass up.

Then got the hankering for a 20" gun and found a nice used one. I've posted this same pic a couple times - but it's all I've got to show.

Like I said, I'm trying to hold at two .223 rifles for now but you guys are tempting me with all those fine photos!
