What a rush to find the AR15 site. In the back of my mind I've always wanted an AR but never seriously looked into it. I always seemed to spend my money on deer rifles, handguns (Glocks, lethal tupperware as a friend of mine calls them, Kimbers, H&K, Sigs, etc) not all bad choices and whatever. This site really gave me the "bug" so I ordered a Bushy 16" aluminum handguard with a fluted and floated barrel.  Hadn't shot it yet but I've already ordered 1000 rounds of ammo, IDPA targets, and I must admit sometimes I just sit there with my "baby" in my arms and wonder "What the Hell took me so long!"

Ha ha, welcome to the club! My first experience with the AR was in the US Army School of Infantry, back in 1985. I purchased my own Colt Sporter back in 1992. I am currently working on a Bushmaster XM15 M4 model... can't wait to get it.

Heh, I know that feeling. First time I shot a M16 was basic training in 1976. I wanted an AR15 for many years but always put it on the back burner, until 1993 when the AWB was coming, when I bought a preban. I've added to my collection since then, and my only regret is that I didn't buy more before the 1999 CA ban. Fair warning guys, you WILL want more than one! [;)]

Anyway, welcome to the club guys. Have fun and stay safe.

I guess I'm trying to get passed the foreplay.

I bought an AR10A4 in August, an M15A4 in Sept., a .300/.221 Fireball upper, an RRA AR15 lower, an AR15A2 upper in Oct. and I am waiting for another RRA lower. Nuff said and bought for a while.
