Same here, started out 20+ years ago buying a lightly used mini-14 and still love shooting it; it's one of my favorites (guess from watching to much A-Team back then?). Don't own an AR yet but have been looking at several brands and would love to have something else in .223 to shoot.
Been looking at some ARs online and at LGS since prices have seemed to drop back down. WalMart also has some really great prices and lots of different brands to choose from. Really like the Colts, Windhams and Core15s that I've held. For just plinking and target shooting is it really worth getting a 'piston' model over direct-gas? Seems to be a least a $300+ premium but is it worth it? I always clean mine after shooting so that's not really an issue.
I'd love to get a nice bolt-action scoped .223 as well. Do you like shooting your Savage?
Piston is a solution in search of a problem, for at least 99.9% of people. Expect additional recoil impulse and less accuracy compared to a DI gun.
That plus many additional parts.
It isn't an upgrade or premium feature, it's just an option for a certain crowd of people. Extremely high volume shooting without cleaning or over-the-beach requirements would be the only time I'd point someone towards piston.
Owned a crappy ar15, jammed like a fat kid going to a buffet....sold it out of frustration, should have kept it to make some serious money. I want an ar10 chambered in 6.5 or .308, but money is getting in the way.
I just traded for an AR-10 in .308........................Sweet
Because i work 50 + hours a week, not including housework, grocerie shopping, and other things a wife usually does, and i want to build my own, i dont want to buy one already done. I just have to find the time. Already have the lower from our gun dealer, just have to find time for the rest of it
Mattel made M16s during vietnam I believe...yep. Those are probably some of the most valuable M16s I'd bet!

Are we just going to pretend like this didnt happen?^^^I know that, but they're still not a plastic toy
Sexist much?
I know lots of wives that cant even remember they're married... Let alone do all that stuff you mentioned...
