  1. I love my AR-15 and always will. A great gun to shoot and looking to get another one aswell. I think a vid of the evolution of the AR-15 from day 1 til present would be awesome.

  2. You guys have the dream jobs. Wow amazing you get to be around all those guns all day talk about guns all day and shoot the guns all day; damn where do I sign up lol. I’m in Texas, You guys should really move out to Texas just like Brandon Herrera did he likes it much better out here in a free state. Just saying

  3. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. The AK platform rifles work amazingly well and the AR 15 platform rifles work amazingly well both of these rifle platforms are aging. However they are aging very gracefully because they still do the job they were designed to do. Remember if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. I own both rifle platforms In multiple and I’m not getting rid of any of them.

  4. As an old retired Infantryman, I'm here to tell you that the Forward Assist was definitely needed, I've used it plenty of times. The NEW M-4's that they use now-a-days and the civilian AR's, they might not have much of a function, but I'd rather have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it, that could be fatal. Just saying.

  5. The m16 sucked during Vietnam
    Here’s why
    They were trained on the m14 when they switched to the m16, the guys had to hand over their m14 and they got handed a m16 with no training or anything just basically handing it and saying “go fight now” now we have field Manual and have made advancements. My great uncle as written books even one about his experiences Vietnam and he was the one who told me about his experience from going to the m14 to m16 and him and many he served with didn’t blame the rifle but blame the government and military head for giving them nothing not even the knowledge to keep the rifle up
