I agree- convenient and easy to shoot

by bj , Sunday, October 07, 2012, 19:25 (4432 days ago) @ Byron

At a recent CSA I was watching someone shoot an M1 carbine, and I remember shooting one long ago. Then I realized that the current 16" AR is the "M1 carbine" of our current time. It is short, light, easy to shoot, it does everything that the M1 carbine did and does it better.

The few 16" AR's that I've shot were easy to shoot and very accurate. And what people do in highpower rifle competition with the stock-looking 20" AR's is very amazing, out to 600 yards or farther. And also amazing is that you don't have to do much to a stock AR to make it work very well in highpower competition.
