A guy that works for me has finished his two year degree and is now heading off to college(Auburn University).  What are your suggestions to get him as a going away present.  He'll have his own apartment down there.  He's really cool.

A nice Stereo or a 20" TV would be nice or a PC.

An AR-15, pre-ban if possible, better if NFA (but then he will have to register it...) but even better is AR-15 made from tannery lowers... therefore no 4473 hassle and nothing for the gov to take it away... then tell him where is the nearest range so he can shoot....

If you have not been around a university campus lately you may not understand the need for an AR.  If an unsuspecting student utters his conservative views, it is very likely he will be attacked and beaten by hordes of tree hugging hippies.

He will already be ostracized, so he might as well be prepared!

That's my vote, although I would add a keg tap to the list.

I do not know if you have them in your area, but Costco sells a prepaid phone card for $20 for 480 minutes anywhere in United States.  That is 4.2 cents per minute.  It is renewable.  Arco sells prepaid gasoline cards.  I wish I had a case of those.  Good Luck.  I like the AR15 idea.

Yea, but in the late 60's some idiot went on top of the University of Texas tower and shot a lot of people with like a M1 or something like that... it was the students shooting back at him...

Stereo would be nice, or a TV.

Calling cards are ESPECIALLY useful.

When I moved in, the calling cards became infinitely handy.  Making calls to friends would be prohibitively expensive if it wasn't for these!

Where I am going, you have to take physical education.  One of the courses listed under there was "Introduction to Riflery".  There is an ROTC range at school, but any student is allowed to take the course, described as "introducing students to safe gun handling and an appreciation of the shooting sports".

Damn awesome.

And 70% of the people at my school are Republican!  Go figure!

Can you afford good college professors???  Colleges are plagued with liberal and socialist teachers (yes, there is a slight difference between the two).  While you're at it buy him new, factual, history books because revisionist history is destroying America IMHO.

It will be good to refute the liberal & socialist revisionist history being spouted at campuses today; I know, I'm on one now.

Or an M1A or CMP Garand would be nice.

Give him a gift that will last forever: a LEGP AR-15.

If he ever needs a break from school work, he can just look at the side of his rifle to find the best board on the internet.
