Gun decision

Im having a hard time making my gun decision. I want a Bushmaster ar15 but for that price I could probably almost afford two pretty decent guns or one gun and a safe (which my wife wants me to get). I kinda feel like I should get the Ar. Any opinions?

    Every collection needs at least one AR, and itll make a great defense/SHTF rifle. I say go for the AR before its too late, you never know what the liberals might do this september..

    Gun Safes will never be illegal..

    Go to Cabela's website and type this in their search box: beowulf

    Buy an AR lower for $100 from a dealer, $50 for a stock, $50 for the lower parts kit, get the upper from Cabela's.

    You can then get different uppers and shoot .223, .22, 9mm, .458 Socom, .17, 45 acp, .....jeez that one lower receiver is all you need.

    You could tell your wife you only have one rifle...and tell her all the uppers are accessories.

    Personally, I would go with the AR!

    I know I will be buying one well before September. You can still get another gun AND a safe after September but the Ar????

    you got mail can't tell you much about the gun but the person that listed it is a true number one person.

    Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

    Although I lean to the Bushmaster XM15 as well ...

    ... Every collection needs a SAFE!

    Buy a safe. The AR will still be here long after the elections. Any gun manufactured, and in inventory at any dealer/wholesaler will be grandfathered in and allowed to be sold. You could still get one,...that is even considering the unfounded fear that if a certain law is not sunset or a certain person is elected that all guns will disappear into thin air. Everyone who has multiple guns needs a GOOD safe for peice of mind and security.

    why chase the game when the bullet can get em from here?....
