Isn't that technically a Kalashnikov

No, an AR-15 is more of a M-16 look a like

Actually the AR-15 predates the M-16. I carried an AR-15 in Vietnam in 1962, when it was being tested by the Advanced Research Projects Agency. When the Army adopted it officially, it became the M-16. There were some modifications along the way, so the original AR-15 and the M-16 were not completely identical.
