I'm just not creative enough for a ton of ARs

[adamsredlines]

I dont see how some people have so many ARs. I dont care one way or another how many or what one has, I just have a hard time trying to make one different than the previous one. This group buy has me wanting to buy some lowers, but I cant think of a whole lot to do with them. I know...its for a good cause...but it would be cool to actually build them out. But how? I'm drawing a blank on what to do that would make it different than one I already have or serve a different purpose other than taking up space in the safe. Surely I'm not the only one?

You could probably build one each of five different calibers.

I suppose I could look at oddball calibers. With ammo scarce and having more reloading equipment that is more appealing now than it used to be.

See ammo, buy it, then build an AR in that caliber. Seems to be the cheapest way to go these days.

Well, you could build one for each variant of the M16 (M16, XM177/CAR-15, M16A2, M4, etc). See how much lightness you can add. Build ones in different calibers. Build for CQB. Build for accuracy. Build for long-range shooting. Build for Tacticool Timmay.

As for taking up space in the safe, what else would you do with them?

I agree. If I were to get more ARs, it would be in more calibers and not 5.56.

That said, I also like to have more than one gun in each caliber SO for 5.56/.223 I also have a beautiful CZ 527 with a really cool Leupold scope on it.

I've acquired a few guns this way...they just didnt develop into an AR when it was all said and done.

No you don't have to. I took your question as asking why anyone would want more than one AR, that could be enough reason for some people.

 

[MacFromOK]

You could always build one of these...

Sell me one of your complete uppers so you have more options for the next go around.
