Craig and everyone else thanks for the tips. Ive been reading the manual, researching online, and currently looking into a gun safety class. I want to learn the ins and outs of the rifle 
Im not treating this as a toy or something "cool" to run around the back yard with.
As far as home defense goes this would be the last option. I think my dad is jealous, he is coming over tonight to check it out. He also told me if I goto a class and get my hand gun license that he will buy me a handgun as a better home defense weapon. I agree a nice short barrel shot gun is the best option but im not going to turn down a free hand gun. I see this as a long term hobby anyways. Might as well start the collection and become knowledgeable in many areas.
I think i did pretty well in picking out my first rifle. I feel I got a good quality rifle for a good price! Overall im excited and cant wait to get to the range!

Dunno if it is already opted, but how about a AR-15 in .223 REM with a .22LR conversion kit?

just learning...will get all the correct terms correct some day
The rifle came with the 30 when i bought it. You can buy 40's, or even 100 round drums. 100 round drums are like 300 though. not worth in when i can get 2 40 round mags and tape them together and bam i got 80
im not making it pretty, im making it bad ass.
