You might read Agent Tikki AR primer guide. By reading it, you will have an idea what kind of AR you want. Just read it, very helpful.
Btw, i love Spike's.

Check the SEARCH function -- lot already been covered regularly. Some "best value" and "top shelf" will become relatively apparent I think.

check out the stickies in the AR section and read them. there are so many different variations of the AR that it can get confusing at times. just read the stickies, then be honest with yourself and your intended use and come back and ask questions. there are many well informed members here that can poing you in the right direction.

Before you go jumping in over your head, read this it will give you just about all the info you will need to pick out just the right AR for you.

And it is a good read for those of us that think we know it all.
I found a few things I didn't know.
