AR Pistol Concepts. Updated: 15 May, 2018.

Updated: I have added more thoughts on the AR GPP concept here.

An AR-15 General Purpose Pistol concept.
It utilizes a 12.5" barrel on a pistol lower.

Lately I have been thinking a lot about AR Pistol possibilities. I have been using the online Gunstruction app to develop these ideas visually. Generally the idea is the same, using four different calibers: .22lr, 5.56 NATO, .308 WIN, and 9mm. The way I see it, the biggest advantage of an AR pistol over a SBR (short barreled rifle) is the ability to transport it anywhere as a pistol without the necessary transport paperwork that a SBR would require.

Early Merry Christmas.

This Christmas season has been memorable for our immediate and extended family. Not all of it good. Yet, we will seek to find the good and right in all of our circumstances. While we cannot gather with all of our family, at least my wife and I's oldest son is here to celebrate the holiday with us. We are grateful for that.

Overheard in a Hospital.

I love listening to other people's conversations. I figure if they are talking loud enough to be heard clearly, then they are are not desiring privacy.

Very recently, my son was having an outpatient procedure done at one of the hospitals in our town. The conversation I overheard was fascinating. Two couples, one of whom had a family member also having a surgery done, were talking business dealings and the market. Both couples were wealthy for the area. This was obvious by their clothes, watches, shoes, and their demeanor. Especially their demeanor. There was a casual crassness that indicated how bored they are with their lives.
