Should you own a 450hp car? A 2 ton vehicle?
Should you own machete? A crossbow?
Should you own a 5 gallon can of gasoline? Bleach and cleaning acid?

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Yes, I know. But according to the article....

Mine fires every time I pull the trigger. I don’t have to cock the hammer.

[Big Red Badger]

Muggy ,yes.

Back to first choice,,ARIZONA!

[mylife]

your mileage varies

[Squantos]

Yes Tucson !! Where 59 degrees makes water freeze allegedly ! ...:o)

[drop 50 and fire for effect]

Hear hear, I have a Sig Sauer P229 in .40 S&W, fifty soldiers from my second deployment bought them from Sig with custom unit crests. We voted on the caliber and the .40 was the clear winner. It is a dream to shoot.

[Big Red Badger]

You got It !
Cochise County’s got it All !

Worked all the old Titan Missile Silos there back in 75 ..... Tucson was a good place back then....

I have one of their AR’s and a 9mm 7.5 inch Glock mag pistol build and I’m both blessed and cursed to live about three miles away from one of their stores in Mt Pleasant, SC.

The blessing is that I can get all of their online specials requiring an FFL shipped there with no transfer fees but the curse is I can’t stop shopping for the add ons when I’m there!..

And name it ‘Sprinkles’!

[Caipirabob]

Lol! My wife calls hers “Mothers little helper”.

[MHGinTN]

Really, the AK74 is even more ‘soft’ and I like it’s ballistics.

[davetex]

Good to know, I’ve never shot one. Good to see you.

[Big Red Badger]

Funny,,
I worked Alarm systems in Tucson at the same time period.
Sierra Vista to Yuma I serviced
Sonitrol Security Systems.
My time off was spent exploring
in a Baja Bug,so much Fun!

Since putting all the stuff away after I sold all my toys, I’ve been diffing around in the leftover parts for things to outfit the grandson’s airsoft AR15 clone. Except for the red muzzle device things looks and feels like the ARs I used to build! Would be an easy convert to .22lr action.

Like the others say, get an AR-15 in .223/5.56 NATO (they are virtually the same cartridge and ar inter changeable)

DUDE! They are NOT interchangeable!

It is safe to fire a .223 round from most 5.56 mm firearms, but it is not safe to fire 5.56 mm rounds from a .223 firearm. Because these two rounds look very similar and have the same size case, always check the head stamping on your ammunition before loading your firearm just to be safe.

(Thank you AGAIN, kind sir!)
