    Default My first AR

    Another great option would be stopping by Bowers Tactical in Centennial. The guys there have just a little bit of insight as to what works vs. what doesn?t when it comes to AR-15?s.

    They can get you started in the right direction of choosing buy vs build, Rifle vs. Pistol, Caliber options, optics, Or what manufacturers to look at all while still staying within your budget.

    They do a decent bit of work fixing everything from the first time home built $400 AR all the way up to building/selling/fixing the higher priced stuff. Even if you go in with a list of questions and no cash burning a hole your wallet, Mike, Rob, and Sean are all very knowledgeable and professional. Plus if you do decide to go the build it yourself route they have loads of reasonably priced parts in stock.

    I work down there twice a week, so maybe I’ll do that. Thanks!

    FYI all — really appreciate the attention. Seems like a great community and not all of them are like that (obviously). I wanted to take a second and acknowledge that. I look forward to interacting more over the years as I get more into it.

    Another small bonus to mid-length is that you can put a bayonet on it. Seeing a bayonet on a rifle causes libtards to have kittens.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
