So I'm going to buy an AR15

[nightracer]

Do I have to get any special licenses for such a weapon in the state of Georgia?

[TeeJay]

yeah, the "DONT LET THE POPO SEE THAT SHIT" license

[JITB]

ah man do u really need a assault rifle...

[redlinenprelude]

not for a ar15.. now a m16 is a different story..

[Ruiner]

Do I have to get any special licenses for such a weapon in the state of Georgia?

Nope. It's looked upon as a standard rifle. You need to be 18.

I LOVE my Bushmaster M4A3:

[The Golden Child]

i have a license to kill ..

[nightracer]

Haha Ruiner, I'm well over 18. :goodjob: I know anything barrel shorter than 16" is illegal I guess that is the only thing to worry about? I am considering modifying the upper half. Any laws regulating that out here?

Under 16" isn't illegal, but you would need to get a Class III weapon (and pay the hefty price) in order to do so. The way that Bushmaster got around that is I have a 14.5" barrel, but the supressor on the end is 1.5" and permanently welded to the barrel. Thus, it is 16" long, technically.

[bdydrpdmazda]

I hate my M4A4, maybe because Ive carried it everywhere Ive went for the past year.

[bdydrpdmazda]

HOLY HUGE PICTURE BATMAN, I FORGOT TO RESIZE IT.

[PhAtBoYMr2]

whats the difference between an m4a4 and a ar15??? is it that the m4a is a fully automatic?

[Ruiner]

whats the difference between an m4a4 and a ar15??? is it that the m4a is a fully automatic?

Eh, yes and no. AR comes from Armalite and not Assault Rifle. The M4 Carbine is a family of firearms tracing its lineage back to earlier carbine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbine) M16 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M16_rifle), all based on the original AR-15 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AR-15) made by ArmaLite (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ArmaLite). The AR-15 was first made in both auto and semi auto configs. Then, the M-16 came out (about the same exact thing, really). The M4 Carbine is just a shorter AR-15/M-16.

Honestly, there's really not much difference between the guns. They all look the same and most of the parts can be used between them. Most M16s and M4s are full auto/semi/3rnd burst. Most AR-15s are semi auto.

[ueyedgr8tness]

well i love the ar its the bomb hey man were u getting it and whats the price.

[Ryno]

I have a Bushmaster AR-15 with about 500 rounds through it. I love the gun but I am moving and trying to sell it. I am asking $600 and if you're interested let me know.

[nightracer]

Do I need to register a gun after I buy it?

[Ruiner]

Do I need to register a gun after I buy it?

No. There is NO gun registration in GA.

the only versions of the M4 and M16 that come in full auto were the M4A1 and the M16A1, after that they only had semi auto and three round burst.

[YokotaS13]

isnt a Gal 5 just a shorter m16 fully auto? I shot a gal 5 , m-16, and an m4 while we were deployed for hte hell of it, and i like an m16 better than an m4...but hte m4 is quieter

[bdydrpdmazda]

The M16 is an outdated piece of garbage, the only people that get issued those in the military now are the paperwork bitches and other people who never use their guns. It only has one advantage and thats long range accuracy but it would take an expert to notice the difference at anything less than a 300 meter shot.

[YokotaS13]

i hit the cans with everythign i shot lol

I know this, but I didn't want to go into detail. However, I do believe that M16A3, however rare, was fully auto as well.

Negative...

M16A1....full auto, non-removable carrying handle

M16A2...only change was that the full auto was removed and replaced with a 3-round burst selection

M16A3....New picatinny rail mounting system takes the place of the handguards

M16A4....removable carrying handle to allow for newer optics to be mounted on rail system

PWND...jk though...ive never really been a fan of the m16 and ar more so to a G3A3. I shot one that my uncle had "on the low" and that shit will fucking tear you up.

[Julio]

talking about guns. I unloaded one of my 9's yesterday at the range, 2 boxes of ammo.. it felt good. yep, sure did.

Outside of the militarys weapons I dont know shit about guns but I can tell you anything about pretty much any weapon in the Army. This may be a stupid question but what is the G3A3 and do you have a pic of one??

[rollin_s2k]

fuck bushmaster go with the COLT, I have two myself. if it isnt suppressed or full auto you dont need a class 3 arms liscense. you can keep it .223 or go gay and swap out the receiver for one that shoots 9mm. anyway reliable gun and fun to shoot

[SL65AMG]

there is NO "suppressor" on the end of the barrel, its a flash hider. the barrel is 16" long


honestly man do what a friend of mine did. buy the parts separately and put it together yourself....

A) its cheaper
B) no one knows about it

only problem is: obtaining the lower reciever. thats the only part of the weapon you have to have the "license" for

[nightracer]

I thought you didn't need a license for guns in GA? Why do you need a license for the lower receiver?

[YokotaS13]

so WTF is a gal 5?

[5thgcelica]

m4's are fun to shoot.

[Ruiner]

Hmmmm


One wonders why go with an M16a4 when you can have an M16a3. the M16a3 has the ablity to full auto unlike the M16a4 which has the triple burst firing option of the M16a2. Going full auto is something that would very useful in a CQB style engagement which happens very often in MOUT situations.


The trigger/hammer group is basically similar to one, found in M1 Garand rifle, and, actually, traces its roots back to the early 1900s, when the great John M. Browning developed his famous Auto-5 semiautomatic shotgun. This basically consists of a hammer, a trigger, a disconnector, a full auto sear and some springs. The fire selector / safety switch is located at the left side of the receiver, above the pistol grip, and is easily operated by the right hand thumb. This switch has 3 positions: "safe", "semi" (single shots), and "auto" (full automatic on M16A1 and A3) or "burst" (3 rounds bursts, on M16A2 and A4). In the latter case (on the M16A2 and A4 rifles), the trigger unit also includes the ratchet device to count the shots fired.

It's a flash supressor/muzzle break/compensator. Sorry I did not clarify. I'm not some gun "newb".

[Big Baller]

RYNO I want my AR15 back

[bdydrpdmazda]

Hmmmm






Where did you get this info from because we have about 10 M16A3s in our company and none of them are full auto, Im not gonna say that none of them are because Im no gun expert, I just know that all the M16A3s that Ive ever seen have not had the burst option.

[bdydrpdmazda]

Im gonna be a man and admit when Im wrong, after some research Ive recently found out that the M16A3 is extremely rare and almost non-existent and all the M16s we have in our company are infact A2s. Two version of the A2 were available and thats how I got confused, the differences I listed before between the A2 and A3 were actually differences between the two versions of the A2. +1 to RUINER.

[bdydrpdmazda]

I must spread some reputation around before giving to Ruiner again but I will get you when I can.

[Z32redondo]

Why am I owned again? :???:

You just made it look like you knew everything about that gun and then he comes and shows all this info stating that you are wrong. But as I read on it look like in fact you know your stuff, and now he is wrong. So I guess im pwned for stating a wrong pwned-ness... :thinking:. Well you get the picture.

Either way you still know ALOT more about weapons than I do so, ya. Didnt mean to offend just being funny.

[LordMDP]

i got a colt ar-its the a3 model with flattop reciever

bushmasters are good to and a little cheaper then colt

the other AR manf. i dont know naything about(like rock rivers ect)

mine is the 6721 model which is LEO marked and cost $1074.00 -best price i could find

if you get an A2 model(fixed carry handle) they are a little cheaper

the closest thing you can get to a real M4 is a Colt model 6920(unless your in the service :)

If I didnt have a real M4 that I shoot more than I would like too I would spend the extra cash to get the removable carrying handle.

No worries. As I said earlier, they are rather rare. Tis all good.

I thought you didn't need a license for guns in GA? Why do you need a license for the lower receiver?

the lower reciever is what makes the gun work. the upper "reciever assembly" consists of the barrel and the upper reciever. ..... i guess thats a bit confusing. :thinking: see photo(s).
Upper Reciever : http://photos.ar15.com/WS_Content/ImageGallery/Attachments/DownloadAttach.asp?sAccountUnq=33221&iGalleryUnq=2004&iImageUnq=38766
