    AR15

    I have been shopping AR's for several months. Any recommendations on a manufacture in regards to expense and quality? Not a rookie with guns but this is a new arena.

    All my experience is with Colt. I hear DPMS is a good one and you cant go wrong with S&W. If you have any cop/military buddies, look around gun shops and you might be able to get a good deal. You can also build your own for about $500-$600.

    Good thing you waited until after the scare, the prices have gone down considerably. You can find just about everything you need to know here: http://www.ar15.com/forums/b/3_.html

    This is slightly off-topic, guys, but may be of interest to some. It has just come out in the Alabama press that Remington is relocating the bulk of it's employee workforce, including most research functions, from NY to Alabama. It supposedly will involve 2,000 jobs. I think their AR!% is called the Bushmaster. No idea how this move might affect availability/pricing. Love to see the anti-gun states continue to shoot themselves in the foot (pun intended).

    Yeah, I all but wrote off Remington after the BS they pulled by staying in New York. It appears they learned how important 2nd amendment rights were to people and that gun owners wouldn't support a business that operated in an anti-gun state.
