Ford or Chevy? its all the same. It comes down to personal preference. Take care of your weapon and it will take care of you.

Pretty much.
I have put maybe 3k rounds through my AR since I had it and it has only jammed once, which was remedied in less than 5secs. Though, I have a few mechanical upgrades to improve operation and I clean it more than I bathe (almost true).
Admittedly though, my Ruger 10/22 is my baby. So very far in a different category, but she is as smooth, comfortable, and fun as any plinker can be. And ya, cheap to shoot to boot!
Local MD shops, good luck finding any AR or AK platform rifle. Let alone 7.62 or 5.56 rounds. Heck, I can't even find any .223, and when I do, it's garbage!!! In the extremely rare occasion you can spot one of thje above listed platforms or ammo, you are looking at a near 150-200% mark-up. Gauging due to recent events.

At least that part is pretty much over, though 22 ammo is still hard to find. I'm seeing AR uppers, lowers, & complete rifles, as well as ammo in the local haberdasheries...Pretty much.

Not just "gun" shops either, Fleet/Farm, Wal-Mart, etc...

It all matters little to me now. Since O'Malley (Gov of MD, and pretty much the same douchebag Gov from Walking Dead) decided to ban nearly everything here, mandate fingerprinting and weapon training, and kicking gun manufacturers out of MD (what choice did they really have?), we have been pretty dry of everything. Local gun shops are slowly closing doors since the best they can do is sell posters of guns.
My AR has been resting quietly in the closet. Leaning against the many full ammo cans. Just hoping eventually this lame !@# ban/regulations crap goes away in the near future. Don't get me wrong, it really isn't THAT restricting since I am grandfathered, but it has really hurt the local gun shop and range business.
I did however manage to get a ZK-22 conversion for my 10/22 before that !@#$ storm happened (not like it falls into the banned items list). Makes my plinker look like a true Zombie Killer now.
BTW, GunBot is the best! Been using it since I can remember. Life saver.
