Diversity is our strength. Why not both?

The Daniel Defense has a hammer-forged barrel, so should do well. Not sure if the light weight model has a typical barrel profile or not. I’d expect the AK to run cooler since it is piston driven, but apparently that is not the case. Still, the AK is considerably less expensive than the DD.

If the Marine Corps replaces the M4 with the HK416, the M4/M16 era will come to an end after a 52 year run.

I’d like to see a test between the AK and the DD5 308. A little bigger, but closer to same size.

AR pattern for me. Lighter, more accurate, easier to mount your optics or sights of choice.

Both fine weapons. How long before the “M4 is crap” crowd show up?
