Is this an AR 15 with optics or without optics?
What kind of AR?
Ammo?
Either way I choose the AR. Gears can wait til Christmas.

My AR sits in the closet 99.999% of the time. I bring it out anytime I sense a Democrat at the door.
I like this...

Be aware that the AR platform is another money pit. Good quality scopes and other stuff can easily cost as much as Jeep upgrades.

I took a break on my guns and now am prioritizing the Jeep.

If you do not have any guns at all I'd go with a good quality AR for a nice "foundation". I recommend an AR10 for the "real thing".

In the end it's all about your priorities. ;-)

Noooo! See she said one OR "2" things you really want. So get gears first and then use your gears to go get an AR!

I actually meant one or the other, not both unfortunately. I don't think going to the 4.56 is going to be enough. I've already got 4.10, might as well make a big jump if I'm going to do it.

Probably without optics, I just want a basic ar that can get beat up a beat. I'll probably end up going with flip up peeps, maybe a red dot.

First time out last week, it fell off my jeep and landed in a soft dirt pile, I picked it up and fired it just like that and not a single jam.. driving on dirt roads, you could strap it to that back of your seat, and its good to go.. plus ammo is waaaay cheaper.. I was happily surprised, since this is my first AK.. just my .02

ps. I traded my bushmaster x15 for a HK USP 9mm, and I love the pistol but do miss my rifle pretty bad haha
For an HK, I'd say that was a pretty good trade.
