Built my first when I was 19. Never thought I could afford one until I got curious and clicked on the AR15 tab one day. Oops.

M16 at 17 - Marines
AR at 33 in the early 90's when the LA riots got going. I lived in Milwaukee then as I was in medschool and the blacks in Milwaukee were talking a lot of trash about starting up shit, getting back at whitey, etc. So I bought a Colt blue label carbine. My first and the rest is history.

I was issued an M16 at barely 18 years old, and I never owned an AR until I was 37. Now let's just say that I have "more than one".
