Got a call from my FFL that my new AR pistol lower was ready to pick up so hurried over and got it, along with a couple of boxes of 5.56, and stopped at a gravel pit on the way home to give it a whirl. I had never shot an AR pistol before, but kept hearing how loud they were and how bad the concussion was.
Mine is a Palmetto State Armory rifle. I first bought the upper with a 10.5" barrel and had it sent to me, then bought the lower an it went to the FFL.
Set up my new portable shooting bench and some targets 25 yards away and started getting the Magpul sights set up.

First three shots were a few inches low, but perfectly centered. adjusted and fired three more shots. Half the distance. Adjusted again and perfect. Last three shots were in a half-inch group...

Pretty impressed with that, so fired a 10-shot group at 25 yards to see how it did. It did pretty darn good with just over an inch group.

Now, this has no real practical use for anything other than the zombie apocalypse, or societal collapse and subsequent extreme defensive measures, but it IS fun. Besides, Joe Biden said I don't need one, so I had to have one.
Now just trying to decide how to customize it. Probably end up looking a lot like it's 9mm younger cousin.
