I have joined "that club."
The AR club, that is. I have been thinking of building 1 or 2 from so called "80% lowers" But I figured since I have no experience with an AR, I should AT LEAST have one made by someone as a starting point so I know what is "right" shall we say.
For some reason I got a ?? up my azz. Very recently bought an old sporterized Springfield (Armory) 1903, FOUR DIGIT ser. number, and it seems to have been MADE IN 1903 according to the charts. Same guy had a Ruger 10/22 with a Hogue stock and scope, and I bought it too.
The other day I was out at a little gunstore and bought a Ruger 22/45 (don't know why they call it that) in stainless.
Today I bought a Palmento "so called used but like new" AR-15 5.56 from them. NOW ALL I NEED is a range somewhere LOL. There is an "uncontrolled" shooting area up N of Hayden lake, I've been wanting to check that out
This old .30-06 is pretty cool. The bolt has had some work done on it, "machine turned" I guess you call it. Stock is well fitted, someone put some time into that. Front sight was cut off, barrel was very nicely re-crowned. Decent old leather military sling. Also has a Redfield mount, Weaver 330 scope, just like the old days
Not EXACTLY certain which model the Palmento AR is. They have several different rifles using the same PA-15 "model," and I see no markings on the rifle to specifically identify them. This has a perforated metal front stock, 16" barrel, like this one
Has a "Don't Tread on ME" muzzle brake, magpull grip and front forearm grip which I already don't care fore. Already got one of my small scopes rigged, but I may need a riser for it
