Hello, I'm new around here myself. I call myself glimmerman68. I too have the "black rifle fever".
After having gone through three "assault rifles", mini-14, ar-180, australian leader, I picked up a preban Oly car ar-15.
Went to he local gun show looking for an ar. Soon as I saw it, knew I had to have "that one".
I friggin love this thing. I realize I will have to take some heat for buying an Oly, but I don't care. I still love it. Don't be surprised if you find yourself looking in the mirror while holding your new toy. You can't help it, you look so cool!
One little piece of advice, if you need anything, help, mags, ammo, this is the place to get it. Right hear AR15.com. Anyone here can vouch for that.
AR-15s Rule. Bottom line. Have fun.
BTW can anyone tell me if "the fever" is a virus or a bacteria??
