DPMS is OK, but not wonderful by any means.
AR definitely used to mean Armalite. Colt will argue that it means "Automatic Rifle." Since they bought the AR-15 design and name, they can legally...

Re: Looking to purchase my first firearm!
Go to the gun store and pick up a lot of pistols and see which feels right in your hands that you can still conceal. 99% of the time I either carry a Kel-tec.380 or a CZ-p01.

Re: What is a cult?
Mormonism is one of many reasons I would not vote for Romney.
