I bought my first AR-15 yesterday!! hmasterIt is great, can't wait to shoot it. I really couldn't decide between the M4 and the 20" A2 configuration, but after holding both of them, I seemed to like the feel of the carbine better. Also, they were the same price, which really suprised me. I guess I felt like I got a better deal with the M-forgery. I would like opinions on whether I should try to follow a barrel break in procedure with the chrome barrel or not. Does it really matter? I don't think I will be shooting this particular upper for distance accuracy anyway. Thanks!! |
Welcome and congratulations on your new rifle. You chose well. I have two BM M4's and narry a hiccup with a combined 10,000 rounds through them. No special breakin is required with the chrome lined barrel, just follow the BM manual and you will be fine. Shoot straight and be safe...ENJOY!!

The thrill of getting my first AR is still fresh in my mind. I too am a Colt guy but I think they're all fine weapons, it's just a matter of personal preference. You need to have another $1000 for the minimum "upgrades" like optics, rails, stocks etc. Also, your first AR is the beginning of the serious "Black Rifle Affliction". You'll soon have a need to get another, then another ad infinitum. I'm on my fourth AR and I can't stop, someone PLEASE HELP ME
