RE: May you live in interesting times...or in Pittsburgh!
sir smithlabs, the AR is such a light weight rifle, wouldn't it kick if it had the Creedmore round?

It is a shorter round than my 6.5mm. Not much kick, an AR is a girls gun anyway! I am building a couple of more, got parts coming.
I may do an AR10 (308) just for fun.
Here is a good place for parts:

:)>what the? sir smithlabs..you're building AR;s even though you don't like them?
Yes, just to piss off the liberals. I teach kids to shoot; and an AR is a good kids gun.
:)>oh ok, I get it, it's a little kids gun and a girl's gun. thanks sir smithlabs!
It is a zero recoil weapon because the 223 is basically a souped up 22. It is a good training rifle though.
:)>well sir smithlabs, I remember when they were trying to sell the concept of the .223 to the military. And their whole pitch was that it was designed to wound instead of kill because it takes a whole lot more people and resources to take care of a person if they are injured. That's what I remember anyway but that was in the 60's! lol.
They also claimed that the ammo was lighter (but you need half a dozen hits to do the same damage). They claimed that the velocity would make the projectile more dangerous, but it is too light to carry that mathematical energy increase.
The it takes people to care for the one hit, ONLY if that care is given! Most times they are left for US to care for....
The .223 is feces, and has been the cause of a lot of losses in our military! If we had still been using a 308; we would not have lost so many good MEN!
>:(well they wanted something new and sleek and modern looking but I remember that it was a nightmare in Vietnam, hard to keep clean, jammed often, not reliable. Do they plan to keep it or are they finally changing it like they're doing with the pistol, I heard they were going back to the 1911!
I think alot of enemy got shot with the .223 and was able to keep fighting don't you?
You are sure getting a lot of bot votes.
:)>I have no idea what's going on sir smithlabs, those bots like me all of a sudden!
