You might want to tell that to the guy who did the video since he shares your fondness for swords. I am not even in to large knives or carrying 3-4 knives as you do since I don't feel any need to compensate for anything.

I started this because I need some help in purchasing an AR 15 style rifle so lets knock off the childish comments OK. If you want to discuss other issues there are other forums.
It's the Internet Freddy, lighten up.
You've got about all the advice you're gonna get out of this one. If you've narrowed down your search and have more specific questions then ask them. Otherwise, you can call this thread done.
I am not denying you are in to swords and carrying large numbers of knives.

Who are you to tell me how much advice or help I can get on this subject, there are other firearms related forums out there were people are not acting childish.
I never said you can't get more advice on thi SUBJECT. I was referencing this thread, as is evident by my specifically referencing "this thread" and even encouraging you to start a new one with more specific questions.
But if the other forums are so great, feel free to ask there too. I hear great things about Arfcom.
I am finally getting some idea on which AR I am going to buy, I visited 10 gun shops in the last three days, after about 150 miles of driving I am close to making a decision. I am probably gong to purchase on of these but would like an opinion.
Bushmaster Predator or varmiter, they have 20 inch barrels $799 plus tax
Custom made lower reciever manufactured for a local gun shop along with a DPMS kit which includes trigger group and barrel $ 935 plus tax
Stag M2 $950
Core 15 $800
DPMS A4 $899
Rock River Lar 15 $849
DPMS AP 4 $899
Smith and Weson MP $699
I like the smith and wesson but it does not have a dust cover, any advice or suggestionsis appreciated.
I went and purchased the Rock River arms Lar 15, it has a two stage trigger, dust cover and a free floating barrel, reg price was $1089, got it for $849. I also purchased a Vortex Crossfire ll scope with Leopold mounts, I looked at the Redfield , Nikon and Bushnell scopes and the Vortex had better clarity, will probably go out and test it in a few days.
Freddy, i think you wil be very happy with your Rock River. We are issued the RR operators and equip them with eotech optics. 5 x magnifiers, tlr-1hp lights and burris lasers. I put mine through hell and have had zero issues with it

I am happy with it except last night I was removing the factory oil from the barrel, chamber and bolt carrier group like the instructions suggest before shooting it, had a hell of a time getting the bolt and charge handle back in place. I had a scope mounted using the leopold high mounts but sometimes the front sight appears at the bottom of the scope, either I need even higher mounts or will have to remove the front sight, can that be done without hurting the rifle.
Flip the upper upside down, slide the charging handle in until it pops into place then slide the BCG in. Be sure the bolt is pulled "out" of the BCG before installing it, a flick of the wrist is all you need.
