Re: AR Pistols
If you're looking for an AR pistol, an Extar EXP-556(http://extarguns.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). is a great way to get one for a lot less than a "normal" AR pistol. Lightweight (3lbs) and have amazingly low recoil even for shooting a 5.56mm round.
However, a short-barreled AR pistol is going to be loud, and an EXP-556 is no exception. You'll think you've unleashed Thor's hammer with each shot

Re: AR Pistols
I have been eyeing one of those since recently I have been wanting something to leave in my car just in case I ever need something with a bit more firepower than my handgun (I know, I will probably never need it but just having something available would be nice). I could probably hide that thing pretty easily in the cavernous trunk of my Mercury Grand Marquis. I was actually looking for a cheap rifle but there are some advantages (well, there are some disadvantages too) to the smaller Extar.OldCannon wrote:If you're looking for an AR pistol, an Extar EXP-556(http://extarguns.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). is a great way to get one for a lot less than a "normal" AR pistol.

Re: AR Pistols
I can't go into details right now, but something will be announced in the next month or so about the EXP-556's that will make people's jaws drop, and it won't require getting a tax stampmrvmax wrote:I have been eyeing one of those since recently I have been wanting something to leave in my car just in case I ever need something with a bit more firepower than my handgun (I know, I will probably never need it but just having something available would be nice).

Re: AR Pistols
Very nice! What buffer tube is that? I have the arm brace but the tube I bought was too big to put it on.

ACE buffer tube. It's a TINY bit loose so I need to find some way to tighten it.

Guns are like parachutes, if your ever in a situation that you need one and you dont have one, you'll probably never need one again.

I sell those, yes, but something is supposed to be announced soon as an accessory to it. Unfortunately, I can't say anything about it yetBeiruty wrote:This is what you are talking about?

Chance favors the prepared. Making good people helpless doesn't make bad people harmless.

Sometimes I really wish a lawyer would chime in and clear things up. Do we have any lawyers on this forum?
