I can give you one helpful tip right up front... your new AR won't be your last... you've become infected with the Black Rifle Fever, the longer you own it the worse it will get... so my tip is forget ever having any money, you'll be spending it all on AR's, ammo, and mags...  [;)]

Now a real tip... download and give a serious read to the TM 9-1005-319-10  Operator's Manual w/Components List M16A2, M4, M4A1... right mouse click the link to the .pdf file and select 'save target as'... the file will download to your machine and you can read it at will...

Good choice! I have the same one. [:D]
Shoots very well. I have been very happy with it.

Be safe and wear good ear plugs. It is loud especially at a covered range.

Have Fun! [snoopy]

Mudzilla, just wait until you get hit by the Class III Bug.
It is fatal.  And there is no cure for it.
Yet.
And everybody I know that has it, they don't want it to go away.
They just want more cases of ammo.

Welcome to the club.

20" Bushy Match Target over here, with some pre-ban goodies - more to come - (See: Fab-10), is on it's way.. 6/10, according to UPS. [:D]

start buying pre-bans so when you are older you won't pay even more ridiculous prices.And wear a rubber so not to knock up some girl and ruin your life,(ie. sell guns for Child support)

1. Be sure to let your parents, who presumably are assisting with obtaining these while you are underage, know how much you value them and appreciate what they are doing for you.

2. Repeat number one often.
