Who here doesn't own an AR and why?

[alabasterjar]

An AK or AR are next on my list. I think I have myself & my wife set-up with hand gun. I have a varmint rifle (10/22), a shotgun and carbine...baby steps, man!

 

[songdog33]

I don't have one. I really just don't have a practical use for one. I have nothing against them at all and I may eventually get one just to have one. The only thing I would use it for would be coyotes. But I have a nice 5.56 bolt action that does the job just fine.

Had a Hydra in .223/5.56 and 7.62x39....wife and i had an unexpected change...child and i had to sell. sold all my ars for that matter. not really looking to get back into them as i moved more into bolt action.

Is it too late to necro this thread and complain about the 15 million freaking roll pins this platform has?

The heck was stoner thinking..... roll pins.....

Don't own a ar because I don't need one yet this time in January I will purchase a ak12 i currently have several pistols and a .22 long rifle living in the city dealing with people at closer quarters nothing past 25 ft

 

[ciaclassified]

Im curios about the accuracy and range on a m14 and are they considered reliable

As much as I'd like to pile on the Noob and dogpile him with accusations of making a crazed run for the classifieds, he's a friend of mine, a solid dude, and just joined an hour ago. Now, I will say that I will harrass him at work Friday about being on INGO when he should be working......but other than that, he's good to go. Welcome to

Not sure about everyone else, but no matter the distance, if I have a choice between a long gun or a handgun to engage a threat I'm grabbing a long gun

A roll pin punch makes life much easier. I deformed a lot of pins prior to learning that lesson.

 

[BigMoose]

True, but I like being able to take down most parts without specialized tools.

M14, ONE ROLL PIN, and it's on something you never want to take off.

Welcome to INGO, young man!

Don't let Madbomber know I admitted this, but there is nothing wrong with having an AK instead of an AR. After you get one, though, you'll wonder how you lived without it!

AR's are the reason I have a set of roll pin punches and starter punches.

I hear ya. Just replaced that one on my M1A to put the stripper clip guide back on (previous owner had a scope mount in there). Great rifle design though, and the more I mess with it, the more I appreciate it.
I'm an AK man, and talk about easy. Very few parts, no tools needed to get to them, and they're so big, you can assemble it with gloves on.

The first time I used one, I was kind if shocked how much easier it made things. Before I hated roll pins, nowadays not so much.

[churchmouse]

I must be a real addict. Not saying how many I have built this year.

 

[tmcindy]

Well, I am brand new to the gun community. Bought my first gun a couple months ago (Walther PPQ). Buddy @ work said, "that's just the beginning". I said, " Nah, I don't plan on being a gun collector". Well, now I've been looking @ AR 15s. lmao! Think I'll be purchasing a Palmetto State Armory AR kit @ Parabellum's cuz they are going to offer an AR class next month to teach you how to put it together. Cool! Well, at least they were talking about it last month. Hope they didn't change their minds.

USDS on the southside does build classes too. Great stuff.
