[ARCHIVED THREAD] - bought my first Ar 15

Posted: 3/28/2006 9:24:47 PM EDT

Hello All,
I am new to this forum and wanted to introduce myself to the members. My name is Marty, I just bought my 1st Ar15 and just wanted to get some opions. I got a Colt, Match Target Hbar, it came with a Leupold mark 4 3x14 scope and Streamlight tatical light w/ laser. I haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, but i'm hoping to get out this weekend. I would like to put a flash hider/muzzle brake on it ( any sugestions) it does not have a theaded barrel.
Thanks for your time and any imput would be great.
Marty

Colt makes a fine rifle, make it happy and shoot it often. Adco is the place to send the upper to have the barrel threaded. They do it right the first time, and you don't have to remove the barrel.

Rule #1: Post pics

Rule #2: Post pics

Rule #3: See rule #1

Sounds like a nice gun. Like said before ADCO is the place for barrel work. How is the light and laser mounted? Does it have a railed forearm?

Thanks

Yes ADCO is the best of the best.
There is only one small problem! The FH'S seem to have been on back order forever.

When you add your new AR-15 to that collection I can see you’ve followed one of AR15.com’s cardinal rules.

“Should I get a folding stock or fixed stock for my AK?” Get both.

“Mini-14 or AR-15?” Get both.

“.308 or 5.56?” Get both.

“AK or AR-15?” Get both.

Your dedication to the “Get both” principle proves you will fit in just fine around here.
