"And so you know, the shooter at the theater used an AR-15, not an AK-47. Lucky for the rest of the people there. It jammed. An AK-47 wouldn’t have.

Cite a source to the AR jamming please.

“Cite a source to the AR jamming please.”

Me. One year of Vietnam service using the M-16 which is just the full-automatic version of the AR. That ought to count for something.

Maybe the the jamming problems are fixed now, I can’t say. On the other hand, you could drag an AK through mud and cow dung, bake it in the oven, and chances are it’ll still fire. /s

Sorry, I think I misunderstood your request. I got the info about the jamming during the crime from one of the news reports. I thought you were asking about the jamming history of the weapon itself.
