I recently received a promotion at work. My wife agreed that once I got the promotion, I could buy my Garand. But, now I've started looking at an AR-15. I'm thinking that from the CMP, my Garand would be around $600, and I should be able to build an AR-15 for around $700. In my mind, the $100 price difference isn't all that much, so they are comparable in terms of price to me.
If you didn't own either one, which would you buy, and why?
