I would reply..."It's you damn assault rifle owners that make us all look bad".
That's a very interesting article. I may have to revise my gun lust list to include an EBR... right behind an Argentine 1911, that is.I saw this article while looking at something else. Seems Outdoor Life is trying to fix itself.
The World's Most Versatile Rifle
A couple of my favorite lines of Fudd reasoning...
"It's people like you (EBR owners), that are responsible for anti-gun laws being passed".
Or...
"It's you damn assault rifle owners that make us all look bad".

Unfortunately, David, I'm like the fourth son - unable to ask. I don't even know the right questions to ASK other than "Where do I start?".Dwarven1,
If you post AR questions, I am sure many on the forum, myself include, will be glad to answer them.
I want one. That's reason enough for me.The government (state and Federal) consider them unsuitable for mere civilians to possess and the gun grabbers think "assault weapons" are anathema.
What other reasons could you possibly need?
"Where do I start?".
The Federal government does not consider any AR15 unsuitable for mere civilians to possess. Some people IN the .gov may see it that way, but not the US Code.The government (state and Federal) consider them unsuitable for mere civilians to possess
Do you think someone who has no experience building or even disassembling/reassembling guns like me could build their own AR without too many headaches? Should I just buy one and learn everything about it before even attempting?
I am by no means an AR-guru, but if you have no experience as you state, IMHO your best bet is probably to get a basic, inexpensive AR or good copy and start playing around with it. Learn how to field-strip, clean, maintain, and shoot it. See how it operates and how the parts interact before you try to build one.

You really are a pompous ass aren't you?The fact that the guns were, as originally configured, illegal for a decade is sufficient proof for my point and refutation of yours.
When my LTC comes in, an AR will be #2 on my list of immediate acquisitions. I've been tossing around the idea of building vs. buying. Do you think someone who has no experience building or even disassembling/reassembling guns like me could build their own AR without too many headaches? Should I just buy one and learn everything about it before even attempting?
Thanks, I was leaning towards that. I've been looking at Stag Arms rifles.

I don't think 6.8 was out prior to the ban in 1994 so I don't think you can find a pre-ban 6.8 lower.z0mbi said:I want to build a 6.8SPC AR
