Selecting AR components
Reliability comes with quality components. Get mil spec at least and you should be ok. I've never shot any steel through mine, because as Vlad said the accuracy is suspect and its dirty. But I've put a couple thousand + brass through with no failures.

Hello! Total Newbie here.
Welcome to the sport! I don't see why they would mind if you came down, but I would recommend you taking an NRA Basic Pistol or Shotgun class first. Most of them go over a bit of range etiquette, safe handling and live fire portions, to get you acclimated to a new experience. As for types and disciplines, do you have any specific questions in mind?

Need AR sight recommendations
Honestly its hard for me to tell on that picture. As long as your gas block is lower than the rail on your gun, then you specifically need to get a "gas block height" front sight. It will need to state it. The fixed will not work with that. My scope gave me fits at first haha. The most important thing is to make sure all the screws are tightend and the mounts are level.

What height is your gas block? http://yhm.net/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_3&products_id=12 Thats a decent priced flip up for gas blocks height. I have the MI that Vlad showed you with the Magpul back sight. Works ok for me. But I think your AR is more for accuracy if I can remember right. Vlad, I don't know if that fixed front sight will work with a block.

A serious discussion
To have a politics section open to public would most likely turn into a shit show here. We had to lock a thread on which dog to get. A thread here about Obama and an AWB will just turn into a bitchfest about the liberals and democrats. How much serious discussion would there really be? No One here wants the AWB. Pay your $3 and we can **** about it all youd like

Go Eagles!
Its not just eagles fans. Flyers fans are especially idiotic as well. (I do realize every fan base has their fare share of asshats. Ive seen plenty of fights at MSG)

Ok, I'm interested to see how you do with the bulk pack ammo if thats what you're planning to use.

BlueLineFish, did you ever get the conversion? I'm curious as to how reliable it is.

GO GIANTS!!!!
Yeah but we need to split them all so noone has a head to head tie breaker with us. With this division it always seems to come down to the wire
-
Ok so I think I'm in the market for my first .22
Thanks but if I'm gonna get one its gonna be the OD Green version. Lou's usually has one in stock so I'll stop in there. I don't like the thought of paying a premium for Sig's name on a GSG gun though.

GO GIANTS!!!!
Now if they could win a game in their God dang division....

Anyone used a Lucid HD7 red dot with or without magnifiers?
No not yet. I'm waiting for the Primary Arms ones to come back instock. I'm not using my rifle in any battles so I don't see the need to drop $150 on a mount

GO GIANTS!!!!
+1 I was telling everyone today how they show up for the big games. When they play like they did today I don't know if anyone can beat them.
-
AR pics, lets see'um!
Agreed. Johna does that magnifier have real long eye relief? Even with your nose on the charging handle your face would be pretty far away

Is there any reason some of you guys say that the Ruger ISN"T a good pistol for steel? The more reviews I read the better it looks.

I appreciate the offer but by the time we're both free I'll probably have bought one haha.
