I have always liked the AR-15 in the original 20 inche configuration , maybe thats just ME , I look on the AR-15 as a modern day STEN gun , cheap & does the job , but hardy Top trier , Opps , If you want a top design 5.56 rifle look to Europe , even the Yanks in the end went to H&K to design a GOOD AR15 , some of the ARs I have seen have been poorly made .
All you have to do , is say pick up a SIG550 , to see the diff , its like nite and day , good rugged design & well made manufactured .
The Steyr AUG is a very under rated rifle , why just because its not American of course , a far higher std of manufacture than most ARs I have seen , .
Later Chris
