Sweet! I've resolved to add only two guns in 2015. One will be a Glock 19 and the other might just be a bolt action rifle!

Good luck with it Chief! Nice lookin' rifle. Never liked the M-16, got a lotta guys killed in Nam til' they worked out the bugs. Been doing a lot of reading lately and it looks like an easy build so I've been contemplating building an AR. Debating whether to go with 5.56 or the 7.62. Thoughts???

5.56 is cheaper to shoot but the 7.62 is much more deadly. That is on my late 2015 to do list . The build is easy just time and patience.

Roger that. The 5.56 I can get for zip at the in-service sessions, but I do like the 7.62

Depends on the build. What's it for?

Dunno, just got the itch to build one. I do favor the 7.62 though.
