    Default New member, new gun

    The wife and I decided to get a SHTF gun so...
    I signed up and completed hunter safety.
    I checked out the local sporting goods shops and almost got a Ruger ranch rifle.
    Then I read a bunch of stuff on the internet and found my choices narrowed down to AR or AK.
    I decided it had to be an AR and found Jensen arms online, nice because Loveland isn't far.
    The cheaper guns they had were DPMS RFA2-L16, Rock River Arms AR 1294, and the Armalite AR 180B.
    I walked out of there with the RRA A2 mid and $400 worth of ammo, mags, etc.
    Still haven't shot the dang thing yet. I hope this messy weather clears up so I can drive out to Pawnee.

    My other gun is a 40+ year old Savage Anschutz 22 that My grandfather gave me.

    This gun is burning a hole in my pocket - I'm headed out to the pawnee range today to break it in and get the feel of it.

    Well I got all of 22 shots through it - nice gun!
    At 100 yards, iron sights and a noobie shooter, my group is 10" high and 7" wide. I am darn pleased with that. I've got lots to learn and there's only one way to do it - practice.
