I am not interested in causing you any trouble.
Frankly, MACVSOG was issued CAR 15’s, in Vietnam for USSF 10 Recon Team and asst. team leaders I also got new M16’s for my Montagnards plus our other INDIG and our USSF and INDIG types carried whatever weapon fit their role the best based on their
mission. Most of my SF NCO’s were the best.

I should have been more specific. There was an original select fire AR that lost out to the M16 in Army trials. Some variants around.

But the common AR-15 of today has never been an issued military weapon.

No intention of causing trouble, at all!
