    ...which is why I like this place....no pulling punches, if someone doesn't like your decisions they will tell you....with no frosting, or sugar coating.

    It's also why so many noobs that come here get turned-off by....what they call: 'the 'fanboy' attitudes projected here. Can't tell you how many people on a survivalist forum have so little good to say about this forum.....or how much I enjoy seeing their posting about how they were skewered here.

    Is he happy with it? he got 2 uppers and probably didnt pay that much. If he is not going to be putting 1000's of round through it each year I really do not know what the big deal is. Maybe it will be like me, I bought my 1st AR on the cheap, learned a bit about them and now my new one will be either a Colt or a BCM because of the things I have learned from owning my 1st AR.

    Take your friend shooting and help him to learn to run the carbine. Keep it lubed and educated him on why. Make sure the gas key is staked and once again educate him. Any other little tidbits of advice, pass them on.

    I went shooting with a guy who had a DPMS rifle that he had fired over 1500 rounds in it over the course of a couple of months. When I shot it, I saw right away that the BCG was bone dry. I told him to keep it well lubed and it would run better. Later he thanked me for the advice because it was simple to do and he didn't know better.
