Finally !! - AR15.COM

Posted: 6/16/2002 10:31:47 AM EDT

I finally went out and bought my first AR-15 yesterday. I bought a new Bushmaster A2 with the fixed "collapsible" stock and muzzle break (I can't remember which, not the AK) They threw in two 30 round mags with the deal. I got it for $759.00. Did I do all right? Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who provided all of the info so I got the best deal on the best rifle. Now I have to go buy some bullets and get it sighted in. Thanks for your help!

Congrats! By the way, you're screwed! Prepare to break open the wallet. AR's are like potato chips: You can't have just one!

$759 is right on pricing for that, you did very well.

Let's see, now you have to get more magazines, ammo, extra uppers, tactical sling, magpulls, it's a long list . . .

All you need now is a bunch more mags, lots of ammo and a copy of Unintended Consequences. I'm just joking! you need LOTS and LOTS of ammo!!! Good luck and be safe. Remember, always treat a firearm as if it were loaded, ALWAYS!

ENJOY! You will be buying others, so start saving up!
Bushmaster is always a good one to choose,
but try others as well, 31 flavors!

Damn, man; cut him some slack......he hasn't spent the extra $500-800 on a trigger, scope, mags, light, dot sight, etc.

Sounds like you picked up the Busy M4. For under 800 bucks AND mags, you made out quite well.

You got a good deal. Now see how good a deal you can get on an AR-10!!!!!!

Shooting an AR-15 is like sex. Shooting an AR-10 is like sex with Brittney Spears: you just want more & more!!!

Sorry Bob, but when it comes to sex, I am looking for QUANTITY not QUALITY. Ill stick with the AR15 and 30 rounders. All my .308s are collecting dust because I am too cheap to feed them.
