[ARCHIVED THREAD] - First AR...finally. w/Pic

Posted: 7/31/2002 9:52:56 AM EDT

First I want to say that I'm the hardest lurking man in town. I've been reading here for over a year now. I finally signed up just recently. Thank you to all on this board. The amount of knowledge I've gained here through other's posts and the board's resources is staggering. Thanks you.

Now for the fun stuff. I went up to Camp Perry last weekend and bought my first AR-15. It's a Fulton Upper and DPMS lower. The sad thing is, I've only put about 50 rounds through it. I plan on giving it a bit more of a workout this weekend. And yes, that's a Tasco Propoint on it. I'm using it to decide if I want to try an M4gery upper and Aimpoint next. I haven't ordered a real scope for it yet. I'm caught between a Burris Mil-Dot, IOR MP-8, and a couple others. I'll probably throw an old BSA on it this weekend to test it. Anyway, I'm typing way too much. I just finally got the time to post this and I'm like a proud parent. I'll type up a range report when I have a decent scope and post it at a later date.
