Re: I want to buy my first AR
If I'm not mistaken, CDNN is located in Texas as well. So it is still supporting a Texas business...but technically, a sales tax should still be applied. I have never shopped from CDNN though, so I can't be too sure. I was ready to pull a trigger (pun intended) on a firearm purchase from CDNN some months back, but they didn't have any left in stock.

I'm leaning toward purchasing one of these... Includes a rear site of my choice.

You can see where your rounds will impact before you fire them.G192627 wrote: I definitely want a light, and potentially a laser. I have limited use for a time machine though... I mean really, what can you do with one of those?

Re: I want to buy my first AR
Based on your mention of Carter's Country, I am going to assume you are from Houston.
I was browsing through the equipment exchange forum at AR15.com and saw one Houston area dealer with some very decent prices on Rock River Arms AR15s. They're going to be in the same neighborhood as S&W M&P15s price-wise. As for quality...well the DEA uses RRA rifles, that's gotta mean something right? The RRA rifles I was looking at comes with rails and you get your choice of a rear sight as well (though the choices are limited to different variations of an A2 style rear sight).
The dealer is Class 3 Weapons. I skimmed through a few other prices on their ARs on the website and they seem pretty fair too, S&W for $862 and the most expensive Sig rifle was a designated marksman model at $1900. I would head over there and check them out. You'd get to see them all up close and maybe handle a few of them. As far as getting knowledgeable help...I've never shopped there so I can't comment on that.
Oh, and don't go with the $1800 rifle for the first rifle. Get an entry level one. You'll hit $1800 once you start putting things on there. Lights, lasers, Eotechs, ACOGs, time machines, etc.
