Frankly, John, I find your touting of firearms actually used in
wars and
toys depicting actual military airplanes divisive and offensive. ?

How does that jibe with your ownership and glowing descriptions of an
AR-15?
Your new found sensitivity is touching BTW.
I don't own an M16.
"The AR-15 was designed to fit this exploration into a smaller caliber
around 1958, which led to the development of the 5.56x45, commercially
known as the .223Rem. ArmaLite sold the rights of the two designs to
Colt in 1959. The USAF and US Army began seriously looking at the
AR-15. The USAF adopted it shortly thereafter and it was made the
primary infantry weapon for all of the branches of the US military a
few years later in 1967, despite resistance by some in the higher
ranks of the Army and USMC. Dubbed, the "M16" (US Military
designation), it replaced the M14 and M1 Carbine."
Your distinction is quite a bit more than dubious.
The M16s the military issues can be fired on full automatic. My civilian
AR-15 was built in 2014 and cannot be fired on full automatic.
It is not the rifle the military issues. There are other differences. I
don't own a military rifle.
How would you describe yours? A clone, copy, lookalike, facsimile,
knockoff, Kit bashed piece of ****e? The latter is probably most
apropos, dontcha think? Aren't you a little old to be playing Rambo?
'Playing' is the key word.
Sly and I are almost the same age, and both of us are younger than you,
Johnny, and neither of us are interested in playing "Russian soldier."
