I am an AR enthusiast, sadly I'm not old enough to legally buy one myself but I know early everything that someone can know about them, and I hope to learn more

The old cliche holds true..."The more you study something, the more you realize how little you know."
You can start off by learning the torque specs for the barrel nut, flash suppressor, extension tube lock nut, bolt carrier key machine screws, method for sealing the bolt carrier key to the carrier per Milspec, the difference between 4150 & 4140 CMV steels, the specs for bolt steel, MPI, HPT testing standards, groove vs. bore diameter, gas port diameters for different gas system lengths and gas journal OD's, recipe for a reliable gas system, quality vs. questionable MIM'd parts, 6061 vs. 7075 T6 aluminum, and on and on and on....
I remember when I had every part of an AR15 memorized about halfway through my 10 years of Military service...I thought I knew it all. I didn't know so much, looking back.
Also, when it comes to life, there are 3 things a man can't be told how to do:
How to drive
How to shoot, and...
well, you get the point...
That is also our biggest weakness...the moment we stop learning.Last edited by Guest; 10-26-2011, 07:30 PM.
