New AR-15! Pics inside...

I sold my last AR (a Colt A2 HBAR) about 20 years ago and I've regretted doing so since. I've been considering getting another the last few years and finally made the decision to scratch the itch. After some research I decided to go with a Smith & Wesson tactical carbine, a M&P15T. I've added a few goodies too! I've put 200 rounds through it so far and, as expected, there have been no failures. The iron sights and red dot sight are zero'd, I haven't had a chance to zero the scope though (this weekend). Of all the firearms I've owned or used through the years AR's have always been my favorite to shoot - they're just plain fun! I'm pretty jazzed!

Here are a few pics (image quality is pretty poor, my digital camera isn't much to write home about):

Thanks everyone! I'm pleased with the way the whole thing came together.

I got a good deal on the rifle itself. The selling price was $1150. After shipping and FFL transfer fee the total was $1210 - That's the equivalent of paying $1100 + sales tax locally. With all if the goodies including a Condor Tactical rifle bag case and a bunch of PMAGs the total is somewhere in the $1700-$1800 range.

The CTR stock is fantastic! I like the friction lock - provides fixed stock stability in a collapsible.
