Epic Day

[Monkeybat]

Yesterday I became an NRA life member!  

I shot my .223 Wylde AR that I built for the first time!

And I picked up a Daniel Defense DDMV4 that I won.

Despite this being my first AR build (and my first AR ever owned), the gun ran like a champ.  I only put 30 rounds through it because I was on my lunch break, but I'm very pleased!

I didn't shoot the DD yet.  I'll play with it this weekend, but I don't think it's going to be as nice of a shooter as my build, but it sure is pretty to look at in Tornado Grey.

Cool beans. Will Mrs. Monkeybat get some trigger time as well? Enjoy and keep on keeping on!

[Monkeybat]

Wrong Monkey.  My wife most definitely won't trigger time.  

[TNWNGR]

LOL...well Mrs. or otherwise make sure you pass along the opportunity to handle and shoot cool guns with family members and friends.

A good day indeed.

I love letting people shoot my guns.  Especially people who are not into them in hopes that I hook 'em!  

One more on the immediate wish list.  I want a Vepr 12.  

I say immediate because the wish list is just too long.  I've really got to get a press up and running before any other purchase.  

Factory ammo is killing the wallet.

I've never been that lucky in my life let alone in one day. Congratulations.

Dayum - i want to work where you can shoot during a lunch break

[Monkeybat]

I work from home so I can just run up to the local range on slow days and take a little extra time at lunch.

It's very rewarding building your own AR and once you've done one you see it's not that difficult. Congratulations!

That's what blew my mind.  I'd rather completely strip an AR than completely strip any of my pistols, especially the Ruger Mark 3.

And you didn't even need to use your AK. As the warrior poet ice cube has it, today was, in fact, a good day

 

Great build and congratulations on the DD!
