Thank you for doing this.

That was a lot of time consuming work!



It was alot of work and I will always add to it. It has shown to be worth the effort.

Yesterday was the 7 day mark since I originally posted the thread. It had over 1000 hits, its been getting at least 150/200 hits a day. So someone is reading it, hopefully finding what they need too.
 
Every thing I needed to know about AR's and then some. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif I just picked up my first AR and have a lot to learn. Thanks
 
anything about all the calibers possible with an AR???...obviously .223,.308 (and it's metric brother ), 5.56 ,.204 but i've also heard about .22 fireball/hornets??? .22 rimfires???....but what are ALL the options out there as of today????

maybe a link to some of the newer options???

*edit* just saw one for the .17 hm2 as well

big,
You link them here for me and I will put them on the top page. Maybe under a new header titled

AR's different calibers?
 
This is exactly why PM is such a unique and valuable forum. Furhunter WAY TO GO! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif

Initiative and execution. If only there was one in D.C. Sorry, I digress.

Thank you for taking time to save so many of us time. I have learned from this and will continue to learn from it.

WOW! My wife is going to hate this page, it's going to take me DAYS to read it all....

I don't know where one would look, but some links to the wssm calibers that come from DTech, Olympic, etc., might be a good addition. (As if you haven't spent enough time already!)

Thanks for the info!
 
I want to build an AR in 6.8 from the ground up where is a good place to order uppers and lowers also looking for a barrel in 11" to 14".

thanks
