Thank you for the advice. But it's been awhile and I've already purchased a complete AR rifle and awaiting for the transfer from Steve . I have a non cooperative work schedule, but I may have time to get it. Perhaps my next rifle will be an AR build.

Sorry, I'm quite new at all of this. Saw this in the store, so I'm quite confused (was in Dick's just passing by). This isn't FMJ? What are the pros/cons?

I will have to make the decision soon to pin a muzzle brake. I'm not sure I want to keep the default compensator. Is this one legal in NJ?

As true as this is (10 round mags are available, stock can be pinned, thread adapter to accept 5.56 brakes, compliant brake, NJ compliant weld...), again this has the reputation of a solid rifle. Compared to a plastic feeling of the S&W 15-22, is it worth getting a quality metal 22 rifle of this type for training? From this feedback, I guess not.

Done, and compliance work being done on my current purchase as we speak. I was concerned this was a forbidden name issue. Is "HK 416" on the list?

How so?

I haven't even gotten my first rifle yet, but I'm curious on all this rifle: HK 416 D145RS 22LR QUAD RAIL for $379 https://www.cdnnsports.com/hk-416-d145rs-22lr-quad-rail.html#.U_UbVPldXVU Anyone have any experience on this rifle compared to the S&W 15-22? I'm considering this as a training rifle.

They show the draw in the article. It seems rather quick to me.

This deal just popped up: https://www.slickguns.com/product/mossberg-715t-22-lr-1625-25-rd-collapsible-stock-blued-finish-18999 Is this comparable? NVM, saw the review: "Feels cheap."

I always wanted a crate tbh... Shame Crimea happened.

That's fine, it seems to be exactly what I'm looking for. Another question though: separate training M&P 15-22 or just a conversion kit for proficiency with one rifle? Also: http://www.brownells.com/magazines/rifle-magazines/magazines/ar-15-m16-22lr-magazine-prod44891.aspx

I think I know what I'm going to do

Where can one find mp22 15 round magazines? I am seriously considering this.

.22? Is the shortage over?

I am considering an AR-15 type, I want one that happens to be on sale (looks like its built for abuse and with a match barrel, this was originally my build goal), or simply an entry level type for half the price. One 9mm pistol with the possibility of a compatible PCC later. I am considering M9/Px4/Cx4 Storm, or G19 and carbine (will Glock ever get in the carbine game?). I do like safety. I intend to purchase one firearm per year.

How accurate and light are they?

I was considering putting up a poll. "Beggars aren't choosers" was among the choices I was thinking about.

I admit, I am not a dedicated follower to this rule. But this is the world of firearms. That doesn't mean I will purchase a Hi Point, though I would still like advice on how often this should be applied.

Where is Combat Lifesaver in all of this?

Any prerequisites? Also, know any places for classes?

I am curious on combat type medical training. I am currently BLS trained, and work in a medical hospital. What would be considered the "next step" and what would be the prerequisites? And would anyone know of any current classes scheduled for 2016?
