To shoot, and keep loaded at the bed side. Beats a handgun or shotgun any day IMO. For plinking ammo, you may want to consider reloading. I would suggest something progressive such as a Dillon 550 or 650
D. All of the above.
Back when you could get 5.56 or .223 for +/- $0.30 a round, cost was not a concern... now that it's hovering around $0.70 a round, I don't shoot as much. But I use my AR's for all legal purposes.
People that shoot a lot...is it for fun or are you "training" for some defensive scenario?
I've got nothing against ARs or gun games, but isn't a pistol the most likely tool to be used in self defense? I don't know the statistics. Are we more likely to need a defensive firearm in/near the house (shotgun/rifle) or when we are out and about on foot or in the car (handgun)?
Colt M4 is for shooting. I buy just enough to keep the barrel warm and get out when weather permits. I shoot 22LR and 45 ACP so I don't need a ton of 5.56 for any one day. Tough to find 22LR these days but I should have enough for a couple more months.
All of the above.
Between two groups of people who want to make inconsistent kinds of worlds, I see no remedy but force. - Oliver Wendell Holmes.
It is fun, just how sparring and doing drills and practices for MMA is fun to me. It is, however, also serious to me, and I am just waiting to take classes, though, you need a pistol for that- and I am not the legal age of buying one. (soon!)
AR's are also a joy to shoot and practice marksmanship to me. I had money saved it for a while for one when I turned 18.

I shoot my AR because its the tool I'm least proficient with, and I'm only as good as my weakest link.
