Off Season Lets Talk Guns
Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.
Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon? Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware? Part 2: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=293623 Last edited by Bearcat; 07-28-2015 at 06:06 PM.. |

I've had an itch lately to get a hold of a Colt Python, but Jesus they're expensive. Any recommendations for something similar?

Mini-14 semi-auto .223. Nice and compact. I used to carry a Remington 700 .270 and loved it.

I didn't remember the exact price. That's why I said "around $600".
I'd spend the extra $13 just to stay out of Wal-Mart.

My AR is (or at least started out as) a DPMS Panther Oracle, which is pretty much the same thing. Very good entry level guns. One of the FFL guys I use is a retired cop, told me that lots of cops buy them as personal weapons.

If you are looking for something on the cheap to dispatch fur & you could careless what kind of hole you blow this fur into. Tula made SKS is the gun for you. Will a 5.56 kiill a deer/ yes Will a game-warden or sheriff be unhappy seeing you shoot Bambi with a Ar-15? In most states YES! |

I hunt deer with an AR-15. Bear with an AR-10(well technically a LR-308 but the same thing really) works fine. Can't go wrong with a .270 though.
As to the AR questions, Stag is a good deal (get the plus package for an extra $100) however buying a lower and upper separately will save you some coin and let you get exactly what you want(or close to it) Personally I'd stay away from RockRiver arms, Olympic, or Dpms as there is better value out there. Bushmaster has gone downhillsince being sold to Dpms, however Windham weaponry is the old Bushmaster and gives excellent value. You also can't go wrong with colt or armalite, however I steer away from them due to their political stance and anti-2nd amendment actions. The main thing with AR's is that parts are interchangeable and easily modified, (read: expensive hobby) Posted via Mobile Device |

Not sure why anyone would even consider a mini-14 these days as the AR platform surpasses them in every category including price.

The gal across the street has a 9mm Glock that looks like new and it has a case with two clips. Her husband pass away a year ago and she's selling stuff off. What's a fair offer?

All this AR talk has me thinking about getting into it. It will probably be a few months, is there a good site or something where I can read up on the AR platform and figure out what I'd want?
