Pretty big difference between the 5.56 and .308. The .308 will require an AR10 lower. The nice thing about the 5.56 lower is that it's less expensive and there are a lot more upper options. YMMV

I liked the 6.8 enough that I sold all of my 5.56 stuff. ;s

With the way prices went last year I wish I would have held onto everything...but the 6.8 is that fun to shoot.

My .308 is fun too!

Nice! :gn

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Ever come up to Detroit? I live just north Toledo and can arrange a range visit with my 8 usp s for you to shoot>:D

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

A 9mm version of the LCP would be so sweet, do you have a source on that rumor? Seems like all they'd have to do is make the magazine a bit longer from trigger to backstrap, and test it for durability. I'd much rather buy a Ruger than a Kahr or Kel-Tec, which I've read mixed reviews on. That would be one I could really get excited about, that power to size & weight ratio would really be near the top of the list. :dr

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Man, I would love to shoot a USP. I've never shot a USP. I might get up to the D one of these months for one of the Ohio/MI HERF's

Thanks for the offer :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

What ammo are you looking for? I might be able to find it in my list of favorite websites ;)

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

.40 s&w, 9mm (Target loads), .380 (carry and Target loads), 38spc, 357MAG (carry load)

I like to diversify. :-D

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

:r

Anyone who's ever gone shooting with me knows I'm pretty generous with ammo.

But hell.. if it got you to Oregon.. sure thing man. I'd even give you a place to stay.

Just not Thursday :r

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I can't find .380 target anywhere. Check the Equipment Exchange ads on AR15.com

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Awesome! Thanks Dan

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

If y'all are wanting something along the lines of an LCP but with more stopping power, have you looked at the LCR? It can shoot +P .38 cal.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Yeah, but it's got to compete with the SP101 .357, 2 1/4 inch barrel DAO model in my book, which is heavier but handles the .357 round well. An LCP-9 would be sweet mostly due to its slimness from not having that wheelgun circumference. Dang now I'm thinking about that SP101 again :dr I need to stay off this thread!
