Just got in a new scope for my AR's targeting and tracking system, I think it is finally complete. It's a new non-computerized system I call Multiple Simultaneous Target Tracking And Recognition, MSTTAR for short.

You know the whole adage "one is none and two is one", so I figured by that line of thinking, 10+ must surely be unstoppable. I think it will catch on soon, we're going to see many more concerned private citizens building their own version of this advanced configuration.

(I assume people realize that it's just my attempt at being humorous, that is not actually my gun)

So with that rig, before you shot me, you could take an x-ray of my knee?

I think that pretty much has all the accessories.

Shopping for my first AR before a bunch of knee jerkers try to pass some feel good garbage to prevente from buying one.

hammondc · 12-19-2012, 08:50 AM

Yep...me too. Unfortunately, the prices have skyrocketed in the past few days. I am on the fence for the Troy Arms AR at Dicks. I have heard/read a lot of good things.

I would love to have one, but don't have the money to drop.

I may purchase another pistol.. One the wife can use more and one more 'toy' for me.

My brother has quite an arsenal of toys and never really considered a need for one, but sadly it's to the point that I want one just more or less to give everyone else a big eff you to the powers that be. I've had a shotgun that was given to me for Christmas by my dad when I was 12 years old, but it's time to get more power.

We will most likely have to resort to buying parts and assembling our own! Get the upper and lower first as they were the first to sell out when the previous gun bill was about to pass.

Yes they will, ammo will start to go up again too guess I better get out the 223 and 556 dies. Never know when a down on their luck AR owner wont be able to pay for factory rounds

big pete · 12-19-2012, 10:26 AM

Going to pick up my XD9 on Friday and I'm hoping the shop has some ARs in stock (last time I went, they had around 10). I may have to get one

Great news. This is a historic ruling. So recently the Supreme Court ruled the 2nd Amendment is an individual right in the DC gun ban case, now a Federal Appeals court ruled that the right to bear is not limited to the home. I don't see how any restrictions can stand anymore.

If I ran the NRA I'd start suing to overturn all the restrictions many states/cities pass as "infringment". Registration, gun-free zones, etc should all go.

MrWolf55 · 12-19-2012, 11:58 AM

Having a similar situation as everyone else here. Been planning to pick up my first AK sometime before this summer. Looking mainly for a polish AKMS or a straight-forward WASR; Unfortunately the prices of them on gunbroker have skyrocketed over the past few days. I guess big brother is forcing my hand.

emopunker2004 · 12-19-2012, 12:18 PM

If you're looking to have an AR-15 in the future I would at least go pick up a stripped lower or two as this is the firearms according to the ATF and would be the part needed before a ban. And some 30rd mags.
