Gents, I was just looking at my collection and I must say it has grown to 7 ARs. I have spent a great deal of money in my gear. I love ARs and yes I have other rifles. I just love the AR15. My question is how much is too much? If you can please post pics. BTW I promised myself no more guns this year but I am feeling weak.  Max |

Damn, you guys are a bad influence. I am in debt because of this. It's alright though because I do love my ARs. What about FN FALs? I never really liked the way they look or feel. Good rifles bit not for me. I'll stick with my M1A, hmmmmmmm maybe I should look into an AR10?  max |
Debt, yes..... not just AR's........ mainly them though....CAV-15's actually. |
are you asking silly questions like that?
The Cav15 will spoil you. If you like to take it on hikes or back packing, they are very light. They are fun to shoot and simple to assemble. A complete rifle for $600 is not bad either. Good luck, Tom |

max, i've got four working rifles and two stripped lowers; it's not all that i want. 1. a "C.A.R." w/ 11.5" bbl and 5.5" suppressor. 2. set up as flat top HBAR Sporter with scope. 3. HBAR Sporter with A1 20" upper. 4. An original SP1 colt (1972 and not a scratch) 5. stripped D.P.M.S. lower 6. stripped OLY lower. Still, I want: 1. an M4-gery 2. A genuine COLT CARBINE (i don't mean a gov't carbine, see the one that 'cactus jack' bought, and the one purchased by 'FRO' in the boards). 3. An colt AR-15A2 (just cause i want one) 4. and as mentioned above, not to confuse the two, a colt government carbine then of course along the way, as i go through life and attend gun shows, or hoard tax refunds every year, and i see something i like, i will buy it. a man can not have too many AR's, i love them too. When i'm an old man, (i'm 33 now) i hope to have at least a dozen of different kinds. colt this list doesn't include the AR-10's that i want!!!! |

well.., i got 9 in the safe & 3 in the mail !!! that Colt Carbine is the sweetest lyttle thyng you ever laid your hands on, my wife says, "it's a cute lyttle thyng, isn't it ?" & yes it is still NIB, welllllll, actually the box is in the top of my den closet, so i guess it wud be more appropriate to say it is NIS....  my pre-ban unblocked green label Gov't Carbine will be here next week, & i just can not wait, it also has a Colt tactical optic sight on it too..... |

If I had the financial resources to procure and properly store them, I could easily see myself owning at least a dozen or so collectible pre-ban Colt AR15s. But as ones meant to be used on a regular basis, it's difficult for me to see the need for more than 3-4, or maybe 5, AR15s. Even at those numbers it becomes a chore to clean and maintain them all. Out of my 5 AR15s, I shoot 3 on a regular basis; AR15-A2 fullsize government model, M4 carbine with both 5.56 and 7.62x39 upper receiver assemblies, and a 7.62x39 AR15-A2 carbine. |
I don't know if any of them are as addicting as this one. If it isn't the guns, it is the mags and ammo. Man this is an expensive habit.

| I own 2 ARs right now. I wanted a AR Sniper Rifle, M4gery, and standard AR15 20". All I need is the Standard. I looked in my safe, all I need now is a machine gun. I thought about selling/trading my other guns for a auto. MP5, M16, or something. I want a G36K, but they don't sell them to civilians. |
