I've been wanting an AR for a while after picking up an M&P15-22 a few months back. Rather than build one I opted to buy off the shelf in a configuration similar to my 15-22 MOE. This led me down the path of looking at an original M&P15T or the Colt LT6720-R. After doing some research I opted for the Colt configuration as it more closely matched my exiting plinker as can be seen in a family photo.
So far all I've pretty much done is clean off all the cosmoline and lube it up. I also added an o-ring to the front pin to get rid of almost all of the wiggle as I grown accustomed to the M&P exact fit.
I've ordered some extra mags and am in the process of reconfiguring the safe - which is rapidly getting too small as I also picked up a couple of 1911's last week
Since this is my first non-handgun caliber rifle I'd like to locate a range that isn't too far away to get it broken in. I seem to recall that there's an indoor range in the Kokomo area that allows .223 so maybe I'll give that a try as a start.
