    Great first AR for sure! I'd shop around, the walmarts around here are closing out some Colt models and have some good deals. Also, you're in CA, so I think there are some special considerations for ARs in your state. I assume you've considered that. I say go for it if you can!

    Don't think any walmarts in CA sell guns. Because I've never seen a gun for sale in one here, but I could be wrong. Yeah thanks! Think I am going to!!
