I know many people "have to have" M4 feed ramps on their ARs, that being said, are they even needed on full length ArRs? I carried an A2 in the FMF and never had a feeding issue...Are the ramps on M4s there to help with the short gas system, or why did they make them? As a Grunt that got out in 97, I never had the chance to see M4s...My AR does have M4 ramps, and they work fine, but are they really needed on my 18" full length gas system?
