It won't be long before you start itching for the AR15... It's a nice build project. At least get your lower now. I got my spikes lower in Sac for $129.00 OTD...Comment

Dude I have way more fun with my ar15 then i do my handgun...would rather have an ar15 then a handgun. So it looks like now you need to go out and get an ar15Comment

It depends on your situation. Handguns are more practical for me since the indoor shooting range next to work doesn't allow rifles. So I get way more trigger time with handguns. If I'm lucky, I get to shoot rifles at the outdoor range twice a month. For self defense, a handgun is more practical as the first choice since you can't ccw a rifle.Originally posted by G.

Two words: "Conversion kit"
Another two words: "dedicated upper"
I get plenty of trigger time with the AR shooting cheap .22lr, even more than my handguns lately.
As for CCW, I agree but I live in good old Alameda County and I think I have a higher likelihood of being struck by lightning than getting a CCW permit.
When I hear practical, I tend to assume versatile and I think the rifle is more versatile than the handgun. Hunting, Self-defense, and the dreaded SHTF (I hated even typing those letters on this forum)."When you get the (men) to the range, you just get the men.

Good choice. Even though I was advocating the AR, a Springfield Loaded 1911 is still a solid decision. Let me know when you discover the Springfield Custom Shop worksheet or the Louder Than Words website. Loaded 1911s make great base guns."When you get the (men) to the range, you just get the men.
