Left to themselves, things go from bad to worst. The equipment should follow the development of the shooter but people who don't train and develop critical skills through dedicated training will never realize what they don't know or need. Like I said, if a base gun fits the description of fitting one's needs for a defensive weapon, good on you, but most here would not agree. You stated your beliefs given your estimates about the membership, etc, I disagreed. The membership base and mind set here is not like something you might be used to dealing with, in any other hobby gun forum.
The board Mission Statement:
The OP asked what percentage of AR buyers leave the gun stock, indicated that it seems like ARs might require a significant expenditure in money to "customize," and expressed his worry of the cost of this new "hobby." My response addressed the OP directly, and pulled it into the context of these group tenets you seem to think you're defending from me.
I disagreed with your general assertion of the members of this board, which is not geared towards hobbyist gun collectors or the general public as far as adding cheap chinese parts or having a bare stock weapon for defensive purposes. You're entitled to your opinion but your assertion that most of us are in the mindset of the general public is off base.
Rational debate is going to work a lot better than applying your belief that a given sentiment "is not what this board is about."
Right back at ya. It works even better when you don't paint us all in the same broad stroke with just narrowed unsubstantiated generalizations & opinion. Excuse me for not following your debate protocols. What are you a debate coach? Don't care for my response, get over it or disengage.
