Or someone will shoot you in the butt and take your good gun and ammoI do not own one and have no interest in owning one. Different tastes. Mine are all related to Long Range or very short range (10') There is nothing here in my neighborhood that would be suited to hunting with a Semi-Auto. Too crowded to hunt yot'es and we don't have any wild pigs yet. Then when hell hits the high water mark I figure there will be more than plenty of them laying about that I could just pick one out of dead hands.
The other day while working as RO on a 25yd range I had a customer spend 2.5hrs shooting his AR at a single target just 15yds away. Don't know what his intention was but I was not impressed with his target. I hold better groups with my 45ACP.
All of those are practical purposes.really all i can see myself using it for would be coyote hunting and maybe shooting games, steel plate shooting, etc. i just don’t see a practical purpose.
I'll take a shot at that question.What do you not like?
i am a hunter and all my long guns are hunting related
Who doesn’t own one or like them and why? Imo all they are good for is mag dumps and shooting games, but i am a hunter and all my long guns are hunting related. I have been debating really hard on getting one but really all i can see myself using it for would be coyote hunting and maybe shooting games, steel plate shooting, etc. i just don’t see a practical purpose. Anyone else the same?
Maybe i would be more suited with a PCR. I am slightly intrigued by the AR after handling a few today and shooting one. I’m thinking maybe it would be fun and if i end up hating it i could sell it.
Then you'd probably be shocked to hear I hardly ever put more than 5 rounds at a time in my AR mags when at the range and haven't done a mag dump since I got rid of the binary trigger that I took to the range once before selling it.Imo all they are good for is mag dumps and shooting games, but i am a hunter and all my long guns are hunting related.

Yeah, that’s another reason i really never got one. I love sitting on the bench, taking my time and squeezing rounds off from a bolt gun. I’ve been wanting to get rid of some coyotes for awhile and seems you get multiple dogs comes in and first shot everything is gone or sometimes they don’t drop from one shot.@Axis II I would like to recommend that you give an entry level AR a try.
I bought a lefthanded Stag Arms M4 style AR 10-12 years ago. I also bought a AK 47, 7-8 years ago. I came to the conclusion that they are really good at eating ammo. I sold both when I retired. I prefer hunting with a bolt action or lever action.
I also prefer target shooting with a bolt, where an inexpensive model can deliver exceptional accuracy.
Home defense; I like a shotgun and/or handgun.
I recommend you give an AR try to see if its right for you. $600-800 for the rifle. You will quickly consume that much $$$ in ammo. Remember that ARs are really good at eating ammo
They just don't get me excited.What do you not like? I ask because i can’t quite put my finger on it for my situation.
I like tools too. But I'm not a tool bloggerMy primary hunting rifle is a Gen 3 PA-10 in .308. My next purchase is probably going to be a 6.8 SPC II AR.
They are tools just like my other rifles.
As long as you love me thats all that matters to me.Biden would love you.
