Not an AR fan

Chris: You compared cylinder heads to an AR? A cylinder head has water running through it to keep it from warping due to heat, and (in your case) 16 bolts in it. Aluminum heads warp all the time (usually due to mechanical issues) and pistons don't warp, they melt.

Every analogous example will break down under a microscope; by definition you aren't comparing exactly the same two things

The point I made was that when you choose aluminum for the right reasons and engineer parts properly, they succeed. It's when you don't use the right materials that things fail- example- use steel pistons in the engines I mentioned. And yes, you could further cite the fact that I probably (actually I do) run the engines a little rich if possible to hedge my bets- but that's turning up the microscope too high again ;)
 
Anyone who thinks the .223 round isnt effective on other people must have never seen a wound caused by a .223/5.56 because they will tear shiite up. The .223/5.56 is a very effective anti personnel round. I think more effective that 7.62x39 all day long.
 
ShawnC, I am on that same page with you. My agency issues us the Colt M4, but I'd happily trade it for a stainless Mini 14, and never look back.
 
AR fanantics please repeat after me
"Criticism of my rifle is not a personal attack. It is not an assault on my moral fiber, upbringing, or family lineage."

There, now that we have that out of the way, this discussion may continue.;)
 
Its down right un American not to own at least one.
