Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.
Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon?
Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware?

Speaking as an instructor, the the first thing I would correct is his stance. He's leaning back, which is a natural reaction for a novice shooter (the mind tells you to move away from the coming explosion). Of course, the gun moves back with you, because leaning back doesn't make your arms longer. Leaning back gives you bad balance, and if a child or someone of slight stature fires a more powerful gun while standing like that, it can either stagger them or sometimes knock them on their ass, both of which are really bad for obvious reasons.
Very easily correctable, though. Just lean slightly forward.
