    AR at Academy.... Man I'm a bonehead

    So....
    I went to academy in Victoria this morning and the have an AR that says price drop $629! I'm waiting behind two other customers. One waiting for a real the other checking out going through paperwork on a new handgun. I had to leave to go pick up my wife. I pick her up and head straight back to Academy. Gone for less than an hour. And as you can guess there is an empty spot where the AR sat earlier!! I ask the guy at the counter and he said someone walked in 15 minutes after I left and bought it! Learned my lesson next time my wife gets to sit and wait on me!!!!

          Academy will hold any gun for you for 24 hours. Should've just said something. Sorry you missed out bud.

                I would bet it was a carbon or plastic style lower. IMO not worth $700 after tax.....

                  If you're paying $629 for an AR....might as well save a little longer and buy a real AR!

                    Buying a DPMS will only cause hurt feelings lateron when it will be explained whats wrong with them.

                            My feelings haven't been hurt yet and and I've banged over 5000 rounds through mine (AP4) without a hiccup or pampering it while hot with the barrel smoking away. Mine must have had sensitivity training at the factory or may be it because I use that Frog Lube stuff!

                              The low end entry level rifles seem to do just fine for most people as do the 650.00 AK's and the 300.00 SKS'. I have some of each.
