Well, almost anyway
 . I'm buying one more lower to replace the one I'm SBRing for an 11.5 upper and then I'm done. I'm stocked up on mags so all that's left is to continue stocking up on ammo. I'm going to miss playing with new parts

At this point its hard to imagine getting yet another AR for me as well.
Pretty much have all I could ever need/want. Sure there are always those truly beautiful guns that make me pause but I doubt I'll be getting any time soon. |

I've got a 10.5" Mk18 Mod 0 inspired SBR, an 11.5 upper with a 3x9 optic and a complete 14.5 pinned to 16 build with irons only. The pinned 14.5 will end up with a PRO later. Overall I'm happy with what I have and really have no desire to fill a safe with ARs.

I have plenty as well. They are cheap now but I'd rather buy ammo/components than another rifle.

I'm kinda bored with AR's after playing with a million different configurations. Buying ammo, as always, but looking for some other guns for fun. AR's are still the go to, but just looking to have some fun with other guns I've always wanted to own/shoot now.

I've been rebuilding my FAL collection, so I don't see any more AR's than the two I have. I see no reason to get rid of them, though.

I hear you, but I don't.
My first AR was an SR15. My 7th was a 20" BCM. I'm still going to get a 20" LaRue, then I'm good. If I could do it all over, I'd go SR15, LaRue, then one billion rounds. Nothing else sees legit range time. I really like my 20" BCM, I just need to see what the hype (and results) are all about with LaRue. I also wouldn't have built a pistol. Cool, not that cool. My two cents. |

Be careful about getting in to the precision/distance rig game...that is a ticket to the poorhouse. Saw a distance rig at the range the other day that retained only one part of the (pre-Freedom) Rem 700 that it was based on (the receiver), and with NF glass it pushed 7 large. But it was a fucking awesome rifle... |

I also feel that way. I just finished up a build and haven't figured out what optics I want. I already jumped to a 10-22 build.

I'm done too.
I've been shooting and building AR's since I was 18 and it's getting repetitive. Sold/selling all the parts I had around for a new build - keeping the spare parts I had stacked up to keep by 2 AR-15's running. Moving onto the SCAR 16 or 17.

I now have 5 complete ARs and one upper I need to build another lower for at some point and I am done.
Always wanted a carbine with mid length gas, now I have one always wanted at least one with 1/7 barrel, now I have 2 and I see what the hype is. I have a 6.8 barrel, doubt I ever build it up though. |

I'm not done for good, just for now. I can continue to build ARs OR buy ammo, not both. So, I'm going to concentrate on building my ammo fort. Trogdor powers combine! I'm going ammo as well. I know I'll shoot it. Ammo is awesome. I did a thought experiment a few months ago. What am I gaining by building more ARs? Fun, awesomeness, adding to the collection, etc. What am I gaining by putting that ammo to range time? Doing what I love to do. Shoot. Shooting more won for me. More rounds, more often. (And mag dumps.) I am a sucker for mag dumps. Especially on the AR15 platform. It's not tactical, or easily translated to self defense, but man, is it fun. Precision shooting is fun, drills are fun, but nothing puts a smile on my face more than an old fashioned mag dump. If I ever came into a billion dollars, I'd weep for my marksmanship. I think I'd get a whole bunch of MGs and run them ragged with wanton abandon. Thankfully, my budget keeps my marksmanship on point, my range sessions reasonable, and an emphasis on accuracy. (Most of the time.) |

I got a new 10/22 as a host for my suppressor and 5K rounds of subsonic 22LR. I doubt I will shoot my AR's much.
If a new panic starts I will be selling 2 AR's for sure. I don't need to make money but I don't want to lose it either. |

As soon as I have a decent amount of ammo (maybe sooner
) I want to get a Laure MBT trigger. After shooting with one a while back at a get together I was sold.
Later on I really want to do a CZ Scorpion SBR, possible suppressed. I also have a Remington 700 308 that needs a good mil-dot scope. Then there's the CZ P-09 FDE I've been lusting after. This shit never ends

I have two. A Rock River National Match rig and an M-4 clone. I can't remember the last time I shot the Rock, probably Perry in 2010. The M-4 gets out once a year, maybe twice. I just like other stuff more. I'd sell the Rock but the market for a NM A2 is about zero.
Had AR's since 1997 or so. I like them well enough but seem to play with other things more. |

I got out of the AR game, sold off all EBRs, pretty much all my guns in fact. Reinvested in parts kits. Now I have about 20 subgun and machine gun kits to build. The really cool stuff out there I am finding you have to build yourself (well its way way cheaper that way at least). Everything else on the market (especially domestically produced) will be available for decades to come. The kit market is drying up fast. Want a thompson, ppsh, pkm, rpd? better hurry up. MG42s, Brens, Sterlings, Uzis, etc those are cheap as shit to buy and build and people will be kicking themselves for not buying those by the pallet. Have 30 Cz26 kits just stashed away because they are so dirty cheap (5 mags + kit for $30
 ).
