you simply haven't stated anything with any credibility and clearly don't have any real world experience with the platform.
General Somoza disagrees with your take on the AR.

But, unless you do some VERY extreme hunting, the absence of a dust cover shouldn't pose a problem. As you've discovered.
You still haven't answered my question as to why 15K rds before bolt failure is unacceptable. You still haven't provided a failure point that's acceptable to you.
I've never heard of an AR bolt failure causing injury, care to provide some hard data to back up your claim?
First world armies count 'cause they can afford the best.
Care to show me a modern army equipped w/AK's that has defeated a modern army equipped w/AR's?
FAL's produced by one South American country? What happened to all the other countries that used to field/produce the FAL. Why aren't they using the FAL now?

A sheared lug should be replaced when discovered, but in most cases won't cause the rifle to malfunction and has never to my knowledge caused a safety issues.
