Well as some of you know, I had ordered a lower and an upper from RRA in Feb of last year, and have to recieve them. Needless to say, I have nothing good to say about RRA. Well, supposedly the upper will be here anytime this month, but the lower was still 6 months out. So we switched to a Bushmaster lower, and its supposed to be here this month too. Aggravating.
Anyhow, about a month ago, I was teaching a Rescue Technician class when we got on the subject of guns, and AR's specifically, and I kinda told my sob story to the class, and one guy says, "I got one I want to sell." Well, knowing I had one on order, I knew that I needed a second like I needed a hole in my head, but as usual, I asked how much he wanted for it. 500$, and its only had about 200 rounds through it. Holy Mackerel, I said I would love to have it, but it would be late February before I would have the funds. He said he would hold it for me, and since it was a deal I couldn't pass up, and the possibility of new gun bans in the future, I figured get what you can get while you can. So, I picked it up today, with one 20 round mag. Pinned stock, but I think I can alleviate that.
