Howdy...I'm new to the forum, new to AR's (the last rifle of this type I used was what was issued to me by Uncle Sam 25 years ago), but I am a pretty proficient "gun guy"
I have decided I want an AR/M4 type carbine, I'm just not sure which one to buy. So many options....so many opinions....so much hype! My use for the rifle will be home defense, camp defense (I spend quite a bit of time in remote spots). I tend to shoot a lot, so I want something accurate and "fun" to shoot. I may get into some small local 3 gun type matches. I think I would enjoy taking a carbine/tactical shooting class.
I would expect to lightly customize the carbine, maybe put a white light up front, I'm not sure what else. I would appreciate some advice. Thanks!
