Convince me, why

[Epoxy7]

I should have been a little more specific, but I don’t have time alway to type out every thought…
Ok so, if laws allowed, I’d build a KAC or LMT .308 AR and use that for my "sniper" style rifle out in the bush. I love bolt action rifles, but after shooting many different AR platforms I am sold that a semi-auto .308 is the way to go. I would love to have both but I am one of those people who, if given $$$ to spend on an expensive rifle, would buy a non-restricted for the pure fact that I can "use" it in the field. Tac shoots are cool and all and crucial for training, but nothing beats slinging your rifle on your back in the field, hiking up to your spot and making 1000 yd shots with nobody around to tell you what to do.

Now for some KAC movie goodness (f*ck yea!):

I have the blue ray of that movie The Losers. Good fun.

I love my LMT, but my Armalites will also always have a spot in my safe.

I should add that the groups in the above thread aren't the best ones. I loaded some 175 SMK that were phenomenal. Fireball pulled the 4th shot, otherwise it looked to be about a 1/4 group centre to centre. The 5th shot was perfect. That being said he shot it with a Burris Fullfield II 3-9x with a bipod and no back bag. The funny thing was I loaded those rounds for the RFB which didn't like them much. The AR10 loved them.

Armalite DND AR10. 24" SS tripple lapped, ceramic coated, threaded for a supressor 1:11.25 twist rate. It's heavy but it shoots like a house on fire (can hold it's own against the most expensive SS barreled LMT, KAC in that department) and it has that utilitarian look to it. The phantom flash hider was modified for the threads and is there to protect the crown and threading. I take it off before I shoot.

Sorry for the crappy iphone pic.

Mine is the one furthest back. Fireball owns the one in front.

Canadian AR10 in action. Not a movie.

wtf? $3K ON A RING FOR YOUR WIFE???? BAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!

I’m not sure what’s so funny? Are you agreeing with me that $3K is being a cheap-ass?
$3K for a diamond ring is pocket change, and guaranteed the stone is a blood diamond from Africa and the band made from 10 karat yellow or white gold.

That's a pretty expensive BJ. Couldn't you just take her out for dinner and buy a new gun with the change?
JK
My girlfriend wants a ring but I just keep finding new guns I want. She will have to be patient. I tell her to stop planning trips and I'll try to cut back on my firearms purchases then maybe she will get a ring.
Lets all go out and buy another AR.

True you can get a great .308 from about $1600 new, maybe a little less, but I'm still paying off my Daniel Defence in .556, so it's at least a year down the road for me to step up to the .308 AR platform.

You want them all - what are you a gun nut?! ME TOO!!!

Make minimum payments, the world is ending in December anyway.

 

[NavyCuda]

Such a hard choice! My visa is getting close to paid down which means it might be time to accidentally order another rifle...

 

[cr5]

Yes Blaxsun had some nice gear. Congrats on the purchase. I give it a month before you're back to looking at the 308AR rifles again!!! AR rifles are a disease that makes the 10/22 affliction seem like the common cold in comparison.

Good thing I don't have a 10/22. But I did find a really cool stock for them so I might be shopping for one soon.

Probably take a couple months but yes, you are correct, I will own a x51 one of these days.

I could have paid my property tax 3 times over with the money I've spent on firearms in the last 6 months but the government is still waiting for their money Fak-em. If the world doesn't end in December I'll think about paying them.
I think I may be addicted to firearms. Is there a support group for that? This site isn't helping.

What optic is that being used on the Cdn. AR10's? I'm looking at possibly upgrading my present glass on my NM rifle...

The ones shown being used by the Canadian military I believe have Schmidt and Bender scopes. I went Night Force for mine. S&B would be great but at over 3K it's very expensive.

I recommend getting the property tax taken care of as part of your mortgage payment. I used to pay the lump sum but asca firearms addict you have to make sure that stuff is automatic otherwise you will always chose that new firearm over the tax. There is always another rifle, pistol, ammo, scope etc to buy. Make stuff like property taxes automatic. It's just a lot easier and the bit extra you pay for the service is worth every dollar.

This.

Maybe it's just me, but having a $0 balance on my and my wife's Visa is the way I like it. Paid property, school and city taxes is the same. A already suggested, get it withdrawn from your account and put into a savings account; obviously you don't want to have easy access to it or you'll end up spending it.

Get those things taken care of 1st and off to the races you good, debt(s) free. If anything, get yourself a mortagage line of credit (if you a) have enough equity in your house to allow it and b) you have a good enough credit) instead of ranking up $7,000 on a Visa with 18% interest charges on it while making minimum payments only, which isn't good for point b) I just mentionned.

not my job ,it is the sales persons job and yours to convince your partner Cheers

Can't, house is on a line of credit.
They can wait. They are just going to give themselves a raise with it or give it to some worthless turd that refuses to work anyway.

I wasn't aware that it was now within the purview of municipal governments to give out welfare checks. Good to know!

And if your house is on a LoC, just pay it with your LoC. Or have it set aside automatically by your bank from each of your pay checks.

But for some reason I don't think you'll do

Firearms are more important than paying back crooks. The world ends in December anyway so I'm not gonna worry about it. They'll get their money when I feel like paying them.

What was this thread about anyway?
Oh ya, Because an AR in 7.62x51 is capable of shooting into space and can also protect you from a T-Rex.
An AR10 is also the only known firearm capable of killing a Jedi Knight.

Just buy one already. Resistance is futile.

You do realize that there are many other government handouts besides welfare? Of course you do.

Thanks for the financial advice but if I wanted to pay them they would have my money. I just don't care right now.
I'll pay them with this years taxes. Gotta wait till after Dec 21 to see what happens. No sense paying right before the world ends

Since you said and I quote "or give it to some worthless turd that refuses to work anyway", that'd be the reason I brought up welfare. I still don't quite understand why you'd say that in the 1st place as again, a municipal gvt and the property taxes it collect has nothing to do with citizen who refuses to wor....never mind

That or Zombies. Either way, it should be a jolly good time!

In any case...what were we talking about again

My ex wife is on a handout (besides child support) basically because she doesn't want to work and convinced some dipsh!t somewhere that she can't work.
But then again she is pretty much a zombie so maybe that doesn't count.

BRING ON THE ZOMBIES!
And buy an AR10, so you can kill 5 zombies with one shot.

If this hasn't convinced you to buy one then nothing will.

Hey where did I say that I ever needed convincing?

Preaching the the choir here.

I must admit I'd prefer the SAPR as a non-res but I'll take an AR10 anyday of the week as well.

Well if she's hot you can claim she's your trophy wife. If not you can still say she's your trophy wife. Just add that it was the consolation prize. . I'm here all week.

On your taxes for dependents. Put "very much so" in front.

Back on topic. Below is the only thing that sucks about the AR, especially the AR10. This isn't a fault of the firearm but our government.
