    My response to that question is:

    "Need? In what sense? Like we need food, water and air? Or like we need Keurig coffee makers, 2000+ sq. Ft. homes, smartphones and mid size SUVs? OMG ARE THEY BANNING KEURIGS?!?!?!?"

    Home defense, SHTF, Training, target shooting, and coyote hunting. My Dillon 550b's help me feed my AR's, and handguns. I was very lucky to pick up 4k bullets, and primers before the panic. I'm still shooting at per panic prices. That said I'm not shooting as much. I'm down to 300-400 rnds of .223, 500 rnds of .40s&w, and 500 rnds of , 200rnds of 9mm (wife) per month.

    I haven't trained with my AR's yet this year. I have also limited my IDPA matches to 2 outdoor matches, and 2 100 rnd practice sessions per month. No more indoor stuff for the wife and I.

    I think this may account for a lot of the recent AR purchases. Why buy one? Because I can. Also because there are people out there who don't want me to have it.

    [QUOTE=checkmyswag;1601363]I don't know how guys afford to shoot a lot of rounds with the AR. Do you have "Your AR: to shoot, to hunt or just to have and hold."




    To shoot and hunt, I get enough "holding it" during weekly cleaning sessions...

    $300 a month allows me to hand load and shoot every week.

    Same reason I buy sports cars. Because I can.

    510HP and personally refined by Michael Schumacher? I don't care if people don't want me to have it. They don't get a say.

    The Prius, while a wonderful marvel of engineering and marketing, happens to be the most uninspiring turd I have ever had the displeasure of being behind the wheel of... I simply can't drive something so insipid. Even my DD Audi S4 puts a grin on my face every morning.

    Sometimes you don't have to buy the most practical, economical, utilitarian item. You can buy something fun. Agreements and disagreements here aside, I am sure every rifle owner here ENJOYS their rifle and in the end that's why they bought it. There are many (or few) like it, but that one is theirs. Hell, some of them might drive a Prius...

    Coyotes and more coyotes.

    Shooting, classes, HD. Plus it's good to have if everything goes bad in a hurry.

    To be honest though, had I never seen Red Dawn, I'd be perfectly fine with just a Glock 19 (if I wasn't a gun person).
