I'm not sure if thats the same gun my friend was talking about but he showed me this new AR called M-6?...i think...
anyway, with that the barrel is interchangeable between 5.56 and 7.62 NATO. Much like how the M240's are. Just twist barrel off and put a different caliber barrel in it. I think the mag can feed 7.62 rounds also

Yeah it isnt that accurate with me either. I felt less of a muzzle rise on my AK though compared to the M16's. Or maybe its because of my foregrip.
I dunno. I would still preffer it over anything if SHTF

No clue what that would be. The M6 is made by LWRC and is 5.56 - not barrel interchangeable. Maybe the SCAR Mk16 or Mk17, or maybe the Bushmaster ACR. I've shot the ACR semi-auto in 5.56mm. It's OK, although not something I'd be interested in. AFAIK, 7.62 barrels aren't available for the ACR.

aah...ic
ill look it up...I'd really like to get a hold of it. It would be cool having one rifle for both hunting and just something cheap to shoot with.
Plus its something that the other gun doesnt have.

Maybe his AR is a 300 Blackout, that's a 7.62 round.

When he says interchageable, probably just means he swaps the uppers.

The 300 blackout fits into a standard AR 5.56 magazine.

Only thing different between the 2 AR platforms is the barrel, all other parts are standard AR-15/M4 parts.

So who do you guys buy from?
I've pretty much decided on a Sig P226 Elite Stainless .40.
Now, where do I get it?

Local gun store.
I would recommend gun shows because they always have cool stuff to sell.
And most times a lot cheaper too.

I'm not sure about VA but I know the gun laws are pretty strict for northeastern states.

Often a local gun shop will sell the gun somewhere around the same price you can find it online. If you find it online, and buy it that way, you usually have to pay a local gun store for the transfer fee anyway and that will run anywhere from $25 to as much as $75, often eliminating any price advantage, even if you exclude the sales tax. The only caveat I'd offer is that some of the most ridiculous firearms advice I've heard has come out of local gun shops, so be careful about doing your research on individual guns and where you get your information.

If you're law enforcement, I'd say Lawman Supply in Clinton, MD. Best prices I've seen around here, by far.
