I'm from the left coast--I hope you won't hold that against me. I found this site by accident and like what I've read, so I decided to give it a try.
A little about mineself:
I retired 3 years ago after 40 years as a journeyman machinist/tool maker.
I've got 40+ years of trigger time behind the M1, 03A3, and other milsurp rifles shooting XTC and MR competitions and burning charcoal in a live-fire Civil War target club. I purchased my first ever AR 15 rifle 2 years ago and I'm still learning how to drive it, if you know what I mean. I'm hoping to find new information here about its quirks and nuances--the other sites I usually visit have become pretty stagnant of late. I'll try to add what I can, when the occasion arises. I've been reloading for 45 years as well. I've got a pretty well-rounded education when it comes to firearms. My dad, a WWII vet, got me interested in firearms at a very young age.
Well, I've rambled-on enough. I'll sign-off now.
Jon
