i HATE my new ar

[42769vette]

its been a long time since ive had a short plinking ar and it appears this new gun is going to run my life. i cant stop shooting it. ive put 1000 through it and i just got it friday. at this rate i will soon be selling my house to buy ammo.

is there a ar annonimus that i should know about. if not i think ara needs to be formed soon

 

[Donnelly]

LOL. You now have the evil Black Rifle Disease!

 

[jblomenberg16]

I can solve the problem for you...give me your AR and all your ammo.

I think once you've got EBR disease, there is no cure. Just have to begin to find ways to get ammo and accessories (and another AR or 3) to fit into your budget.

I've had EBR disease for about 3 months now. I went from someone who bought a presidential commemorative rifle (ordered mine right after the election) just to have "one," to putting another lower on order and making plans for a second build, to buying a few thousand rounds of ammo.

this isn't my first ar. my others i have just tried so hard to get my groups tiny that i forgot how fun it was to just go out and put tons of holes in a piece of paper. this one shoots about 1 inch group at 50 yds wich im fine with.

With BRD, you definitelty enter a love/hate type of relationship- you love shooting it and hate buying ammo!

 

[42769vette]

Ha ha...I'm here for ya man!!

Some of the folks I know with multiple AR's have the same condition you mention...they get focused on uber accuracy. My AR is the most accurate rifle I've ever owned, and I'm like you, tickled pink iwth 1" groups at 50 yds. I was darn pleased that I can pick of 12ga shotgun shells off hand at 25 yds with it.

P.S. I'm halfway considering one of the .22LR conversions for the 2nd build to help with the ammo cost issue. I they pay themsleves back in less than 1000rds.

Black gun disease has ruined my life.Get out while you can.

 

[trophy hunter]

i got it too...

i got it too..

 

[jajwrigh]

The first step in recovery is realizing that you have a problem!

 

[Colt556]

Yeah, I got it bad too. We need an AR Get Together.

 

[42769vette]

Yeah, I got it bad too. We need an AR Get Together.

count me in

 

[IndianaSlim]

I'm down....even have a place to shoot em......or we could head to a range. Either way I'm in.

 

[zcam630]

I can't wait to get this dreaded disease.

I have 2 lowers on order. Now I need to start putting together the rest of the parts list.

 

[shooter521]

at this rate i will soon be selling my house to buy ammo.

.22 conversion kits are your friend.

Unfortunately I am sorry to inform you. Sir,,,There is no cure for EBRD... There is also no known effective treatment for the symptoms other than more and more ammo. You will have to live with this for the rest of your life...You should maybe take a few days or weeks to come to terms with these facts before you inform your family. This time should be spent either at the rifle range or some remote location where you and your BR can form the bonds necessary to survive this infection for as long as possible... My condolences to you and your family Sir....

 

[42769vette]

Well at least you can get your hands on enough ammo for that...

i can get my hands on it but can i afford it. 223 isn't as cheap as it was a couple years ago.

I found a reicept for 1000 rounds of WWB for $149.00 dated 11/99. I'm not a math wiz but, maybe somebody out there is...@ 469.00 a case what is the increase in percentages.
