I just couldn't wait!

The range I use is so far away. I have to drive my truck about 100 yards before I can shoot!

I've wanted an M-16 or M-16 A1 just like the ones I used in the Air Force. That ain't gonna happen, so the AR15-A2 is as close as I can get. I like the carbine length better too.

Spec sheet

This is the one I call mine, perched on my usual "shooting table" along with the 2 USGI 20 rounders it came with, 2 more USGI 30-rounders, and 2 PMAG 30-rounders. That's a total of 160 rounds without a hitch.



I'm not a Colt koolaid drinker but since real M-16's have the prancing pony...



I may get a flat-top later, but for now I have what I want. The rifle itself was $920.00 + tax at CTD in McKinney.

I finally caved in and bought my first AR yesterday. I got a Colt AR6520.

I have wanted an M-16 since basic training in 1972. This is probably as close as I will get.

I had actually planned to get a S&W, but this was the same price and came with the sights I wanted.
