I was watching an Auction on GunBroker this weekend for a Smith & Wesson M&P15OR that my local shop had on there. I had thought about getting an AR for awhile but just never wanted to spend the cash but with all of the threats coming out of Washington again I figured now was the time.
Any way I checked the local shops website and found that they sell this rifle for $899.99 in the store. The current bid was in the low $600 range at the time so I put in a couple of bids before winning. I ended up at $682.77 at the end so I think I did well. I'll try to go pick it up tomorrow.
Now seeing this is my first experience with the AR platform I'm sure I have ALOT to learn. The gun comes without any sights so when funds allow that's where I need to start. I have trouble getting my eyes to focus on iron sights any more so some type of optic is in store. Do any of you have a preferred optic for the AR platform or will any rifle scope work?

My daughter came from Missouri, my son and grand son, my wife and I had a nice dinner of grilled "porter house" pork chops, corn on the cobb, my son, G'son and I share 10/5. G'son is 4 minutes early though @ 10/4.
Pooh I hope you find to right house .
