Just got my nxs 5.5x22 for my sass loving it.

I'm new to the site, just found it. Why an ar10, well how it starts is my first rifle was a springfield 1903a3. The exact rifle my great grandfather carried into battle in ww1. The only modification was a leopold 3-9, my father found it amusing watching 11 year old me wielding that 13lb rifle while elk and deer hunting. Joined the army (cav scout) and when I deployed to iraq 03-04 that same leopold went with. I was my platoon des mark. Agian in 07-09 that scope went back to iraq, agian a des mark but this time as personal security for a eod team. Ended up with m14 they pulled out of some warehouse somewhere. I was never so happy, I new first hand what that .30 cal round could do. The leopold went on that m14 with the help of a mount my dad sent me from home. Got back left the army and now that springfield still still sits in my safe however now topped with a bit more beat up leopold. While I was deployed I hated the.barreta so my personal preferencewas a jericho 914 45acp. I always loved the .30 cal and loved even more a .30 cal semi auto, but wanted more than a m1, so I got a dpms sass. Not a larue a know but its never malfunctioned, maybe not as accurate, but when bullets fly the other way its not the rifle so much as the person behind the trigger. As a side note my boy (8) keeps eye balling that springfield
