I've shot 100s of rounds on full and semi auto out of ARs about as fast as I could change mags.

They shot. Every time. Including on "run-swim-runs" through o-courses and then the ocean, up sand dunes and ending at a 200 yard range in the prone.

This talk about AR-s not shooting is dilletante crap for and by chumps. You are swallowing the marketing hype. "Everybody has to shitcan their gas guns and buy a new piston gun from XYZ Corp for $2,000, or you won't survive a day!"

What utter juvenile crap.

That's a darn fine M1A there. Here's a shot of mine:

And I'll concur with your opinion of the AR platform. It ain't perfect but if you treat it right it'll go bang every single time.

“dilletante”

Yep. In the words of a mentor, “Anyone who thinks the M-16 platform sucks, well, back your ass 500 meters down range; I’ll mudpit this rifle, swab it with pig shit, and pour a bucket of sand through it...then take one, just one, shot through its iron sights at ya. You’ll put your ass where your mouth is, right?”

Wow, look at the hair on that hippy!

Don'tcha just miss the 70s? $;-)
