I would just like to spread a little hate and discontent. I would like some other view points and mean no disrespect to anyone.
Do we as patriots really need everyone carrying 10-12 pound rifles made for sniping if insurection ever happens. Seems like too many chiefs and not enough braves?
A rock stock AR 15 with open sights and 16" or skinney barrel can get the job done out to 500 yds with the right twist. You can build or buy a perfectly good performer for $500-$600 again.
When I first used M16 in combat I cleaned it, oiled it, slept with it and it NEVER failed me and it hit what it was aimed at. That was the old pre A-1 with all the jamming problems by all the experts. Ugene Stoner said about the guns he saw jammed said "my god doesn't anyone clean guns anymore". Now 44 years later and hundreds of mods its only improved and got heavier.
I keep reading about the only dependable AR type is a AK type piston, does that mean we can run over it with a truck and it still operates (don't think so). If you run over a AR your gonna have a busted AR.
Now optics (oh hell no i'm not going to open that can of worms).
OK guys lite in to me.
