Thanks. It's my first AR 15. I've been searching for accessories all kinds. It's very additive. All I watch now is Ar rifle ####. Is that bad?

Thanks guys. It's the American made gen 2. People say the German one is better, but I could only find them in fde and it was a few hundred more then I paid. I wanted a black one.
I never thought I'd have this much fun accessorizing a gun. I've spent over $1400 so far to trick it out lol.
Could have bought an HK mr223. But I probably would have spent more money to accessorize it.
Oh well. I'm still happy with my purchase.

I just bought one as well. I'm curious to see how you tricked yours out. Please tell!

Here is my Sig 516. Just picked her up this weekend. Still waiting on accessories.
I suggest you come up to Camp Borden on the weekends and shoot CQB with us. Most fun you can have with your clothes on.
From your own shooting experience you will learn which accessories you need and what (if anything) you need to change on the rifle.
You would need 5 rifle mags, mag pouch, sling, a 25 yard zero on the rifle, a pistol with holster and 2 mags.
I can lend you any gear you don't yet have.

Sweet vids. Where is this camp Borden. I'm in Toronto. And looking for a good indoor and outdoor range that's not too far away.

Up the 400 to Alliston. (South of Barrie)
The ORA conducts a full shooting program there. Something for everyone.
The CQB stress accuracy (the bull is about the size of a business card) and speed. By speed, I mean you have to shoot and change mags within a time limit. Most of us shoot the AR because it changes mags faster than other rifles.
A day of CQB needs about 200 rounds of rifle ammo and about 40 of pistol. Lots of shooting!
In the first video you see us advancing 5 yards at a time and shooting 2 shots at each target. The mag holds 5, so we have to change mags in the middle of some shoots.
Also, the scope sits 2.3" above the bore, so if the rifle is zeroed at 25 yards, it shoots a bit high at 30 yards, and shoots lower and lower as we advance. At 10 yards I aim an inch high.
