New member just saying hello

[swanny70]

Hello,
I just joined this site and I want to say hello, I am just a light hobbiest to the gun world but I am thinking about getting either a AR-15 or AK-47 before they make them illegal, so I would love some of you to tell me which gun you like better and why? Thanks

Welcome to INGO, swanny.

Both the AKs and ARs have their fans. Some own both. There are advantages and disadvantages to either and some own both. I'd look around in the "Long Guns" section for info on both. If you ask there, you will get an overwhelming amount of input.

Welcome to the group.



You might want to google AK versus AR as there are a zillion or so threads about it.

Welcome from Hobart. You need to get your hands on both rifles and see which or both feels good to you so you can try before you make the purchase(s).

Hey Pudly, thank you for the helpful advice! I was not sure where to even look or start but now I am looking forward to seeing this "Long Guns" section.

Thanks again!

Thanks trucker777,

I am from the northern part of the state, any suggestions on any ranges up here that allows shooters to use AK or AR rifles?
I now that there are shooting ranges close by but I am not sure if they allow long guns or bigger weapons?

Welcome. Everybody has their favorite... I am partial to AR15's. Carried the M16/M4's all over the freaking world so I have a preference.

I frequent Kingsbury, as it is only a 15 min. drive from me. There is also Jasper Pulaski. Both will allow you to shoot large caliber rifles up to 100yrds.(except Kingsbury banned the .50 Barretts)....I don't really know of anything west of Valpo.

Also Winnemac, that is where NW Ingo m&s are held.
