@danielmckraken5160 Are you 12 there were hundreds of deaths in Vietnam the initial trial rifle unaltered ran perfectly. The US Military stepped in made mods especially with powder it was always designed to use cordite. Fouling Rust no cleaning kits and the myth it never needed to be cleaned. Was the Problem. Several documents from the US Military such as an army out gunned and recent news in Afghanistan SAW US troops killed as weapons failed due to fouling and heat. My favourite Taliban shot 7 or 8 times jumps wall shot 7 mote times killed a medic dropped by a 45. The US Military admits 5.56 is combat ineffective past 200m and little use below that. I recommend The Black Rifle one and Two for a full history of the AR ( Not designed by Eugene Stoner and neither was the cartridge) US Military Review An Army Out gunned plus Taking back the Infantry Half Click also New 5.56 Ammo Required. Eye popping reading within. The AR was supposed to be temporary till a new design its still around there are hundreds of combat reports of people being shot and walking away. Afghanistan two or three Taliban shot soldier heard noises behind him suprised to see what looked like drunk people getting up off the ground.
