So I bought my first EBR yesterday. (Thanks Brent!)
I've been shooting for a long time, just never quite understood people who needed the EBRs. So I thought I'd buy one to see what all the fuss is about.
If you're reading this, then you probably saw the pics in his for sale thread. Bushmaster M4 style
It is
5.56 barrel -like
1/9 twist -don't like
14.5" barrel -think I like
looks to be barely shot -really like
Bushmaster -not crazy about the brand, but at least I can make jokes with the name... you know like when I showed the wife my gun and asked if she wanted to hold my bushmaster. It didn't work.
Now, I don't know too much about these but I'm going to go shoot it over the weekend. I'd like to try to sight it in and generally get to know it a little. I'll be iron sights only as it doesn't have any rails to mount the optics. I'll be looking for some rails if anybody has a rec for a site to order from.
It would be great if someone who has a clue wants to join me. Anybody interested in a little range time? I'll might do a little pistol too depending on how much time I waste on the AR.
