Finally decided to not be a lurker and join up . Looks like I`ve found a forum that has real knowledge and not a bunch of B.S.
I`m a long time shooter ( still have my Winchester Mdl 69A I bought when I was 12 ) who is getting back in and trying to come up to speed with all the new developments ..... and things have really changed !
Just my luck that I`m doing this when everything went crazy .... but that`s life .
I did luck out this past December and found a new PSA 5.56 for under $800 as a starting point for the madness that I`m sure will follow .
