Rifles can use pistol calibers....
If it were the other way around there wouldn't be pistol calibers

$2000 for the first AR is a ridiculous budget. IMO you're better off getting a budget/value AR that is to your liking and then shooting / competing with it to determine what specific accessories you're interested in for what your intended uses are rather than what seemed "cool" at first, but with more experience realize is "tactical crap."
And 'Merica
This is exactly why I love the AR platform.When you think about an AR, think outside the box.
There are MANY more than you can imagine.

OP: you've asked a great question that I've struggled with for decades.Trying to understand the appeal of 5.56 / AR rifles and why there's such demand for them over pistol-caliber AR style pistols.
There is an amazing depth of responses here on the AR.
I'm a rifle newbie. I purchased my first pistol last year for home defense and have since really started to enjoy target shooting, etc. I just purchased a CMMG Banshee 10mm that's classified as a pistol but it certainly resembles an AR.

Stupid question, but look forward to the insight.

Lots of pistols use rifle calibers too.
Are we talkin something like a contender with a rifle caliber barrel?
Granted I don't know a lot about a lot but I can't think of another pistol.
I guess a bunch or AR pistols.
