How many ARs do we have?

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - How many ARs do we have? (Page 1 of 2)

Posted: 8/8/2005 9:56:39 AM EDT

Poll coming...

I am curious... how many ARs do we have... the ARFCOM community?

2 or less
3
4
5
6

Based on the number of votes times the selections selections indicated, we should be able to tally it up...

Please only include fully assembled weapons. "2 or less" = at least one. Basically, I am assuming that if you have one, you will likely have two sooner or later.

Boating accident. Slippery finish...blah blah blah.

1 for me

I think 50% of the people on here owning 1 would be a pretty low ball number.
some actually don't own one - others own quite a few.

6+, two of which I shoot regularly.

Actually assembled and will fire ammo? 2

If I'd finish building the other lowers and stop spending money on other stuff? Many More

More than California.

It would be interesting to add up the numbers of board members. I think the most I have seen a single member have is 20.

I need the new AR15.com one and I would like to also buy last year's Cavalry Arms edition.

The poll is jacked, long bar for 6+ but 0% I dont get it.

By cutting it off at "6+", you won't get anywhere near the actual count. Quite a few double-digit AR folks on this board...

I'll make a poll... after we finish this one... for those with 6+ ARs to indicate how many... I'll adjust our results accordingly.

Complete AR's?
Finished lowers waiting uppers?
Stripped lowers?

The numbers could be staggering...............

Looks like I'm in the minority with only 3.

I have more than I need, less than I want.

I'm guessing 5,000 regular posters on the boards x approximately three each.

Remember, for every member who has seven or more, there's two members who have none.

ETA: That's 15,000 for you slow guys.

Yep... thanks. I saw that.. but I would like to get a better estimate.

My interest got spurred by the tread on the New Zealand cops getting ARs.. at total of about 900. I amcurious to see how that compares to our little "community".

UPDATE: at 50 votes there are 115 ARs. (assumes cap = 6 per vote). Poll has been posted for less than 20 minutes.

I'd have to say I am in

None of course....... who needs a semi-automatic rifle?

I'd never own two Armalite carbines and enough ammo to keep the zombies at bay for a decade....

never...

I used to have some...all I got now is the pictures. Freak storm at sea, top heavy container, over the side it went. It was a tragedy, but I'm *slowly* coming to grips with it. It's amazing how many people this has happened to here.

Only 1 for me, I will own at least 1 more.....

One 20" Bushmaster.

Would like to add a M4, but I've been bit by the AK bug.

Posted: 8/8/2005 8:53:20 PM EDT

[#41]

1 Bushmaster BCWA3S20

1 Bushmaster BCWA3F 14M4IZ

&

1 STAG M4 (build gun)

But Im really tempted to get 3 RRA lower's

I own less AR's then the number of times I've seen this question asked
in the 9 months I've been here .

So around 20

Just one for me, a 6920. I know it's heresy, but that's all I really want. I prefer to spread my love around. M1A bush, IBM Carbine, and a Winchester Garand keep my Colt company.

4

One Bushmaster post-ban 20" HBAR

Two Bushmaster post-ban M4gery's, one has had the stock and mini-y comp removed and replaced, and the other just has the stock replaced with a 6-position

One Colt 6920
