Bushmaster M4. Happy as all hell too. My dad was a Marine in the '70's and had a few 30 round mags laying around empty for the past 23+ years or so (that's older than me!) I figure I'll put some Wolff springs and green followers in them and call it a day. I had to cancell a Kimber 1911 order to get this rifle, but so far I love it!

I'm in Tampa. A quick MapQuesting of Lake City comes up with 150 miles due north on I-75 and I'm there. I must come up at least once to meet everyone and shoot.

HHAHAHAHAHA yeah no kidding. This is my first venture out of the handgun world (ironically, my first venture out of the 1911 world) I've always loved the look of AR's, so I'm really excited. I'm going to the range tonight to try it out. Thanks for the kind words, guys :)

I'll go ahead and tell you the Mini Y muzzle break is brutal and some people outright hate the thing.. so hold your breath if your going to just unload a mag.. otherwise the gases being blown back will clog up your sinuses.

Hey, your dad wasn't a Marine in the 70's. He is still a Marine. Ya know, once a Marine, always a Marine.

Wait a second, you're telling me you cancelled an order for a Kimber for an AR???

Good choice, welcome and enjoy...

Hey 45FMJoe, since you're in Florida, you may want to go visit Kurt's Kustom Firearms and have that damned Mini-Y Comp removed from your M4.

They make better muzzle brakes, and if you want, you can have one that is fake. I think KKF is a better choice than the Mini-Y Comp.

Bushmaster makes one heck of a AR15 oops XM15!
Bushmaster is addictive so watch out!
And Microtechs are just as Bad!
The Bushy Shorty that I have has never HicUp once!
And I fired it several 1000 Times!
Now you will need to look at Uppers next to switch out?
