Assault Rifle Primer for Economic Collapse Survival

http://www.SurvivalThinkTank.com

Just a basic primer on the AR-15 assault rifle and what I have installed on my battle rifle. I highly recommend acquiring one if you have the means before they are made illegal or made too expensive to acquire. [edit] A commenter stated that I shouldn't call the AR a battle rifle, as it is truly an assault rifle.

AR-15 stands for Armalite,the company that made it then the desing was sold to colt and they made the M16 and thats why they have the same desing

its called a maggazine not a clip(clips load maggazines and maggazines load rifles)

its called a cartrige( i say round ) not a bullet ( a bullet is the projectile)

its called a rifle not a assult rifle (assult rifles give the option of being fully automatic)

real gun safety is following gun safety rules not just turning on the safety.

@JERMBUGS good call. It will answer all your questions.

[JERMBUGS]

@theroadwarri0r Thanks for weighing in with your experience and comments. I value what you do and say here on YouTube and your blog. I look forward to your next video. I will spend the next little while watching the suggested video about Piston vs DI Dilemma.

[theroadwarri0r]

@JERMBUGS I like DI guns, and I've owned both. YMMV. Again, watch the nutnfancy video on this subject and make your own decision. It's an all-inclusive video outlining the pros and cons of DI vs. Piston. Good luck.

[JERMBUGS]

@JERMBUGS Sorry for not being more clear originally on my question. There just simply is not enough character support within video responses for an in depth question and response.

[JERMBUGS]

@theroadwarri0r Thanks for the responses. I guess my point of asking is, if the military thinks the DI system is no longer adequate, and a gas piston system is the way of the future for the military rifle, do you agree? Or do you think that it would be a good idea to switch over to the newer gas piston system since our military will in the near future? Or would it be better to stick with the commonality of the current system and parts until a new system in standardized?

[theroadwarri0r]

@JERMBUGS I don't see why that would be a reason for to ask me to convince you. Watch this video and make your decision watch?v=6auXTiqNtEo

[JERMBUGS]

@theroadwarri0r Reason for my questioning is because the Army is currently running trials for the next Military Carbine. The manufactures in the running are Colt's new gas piston AR-15, H&K's gas piston AR-15, Adcor's gas piston AR-15, FN SCAR (gas piston rifle), and Remington's ACR (gas piston rifle). And just before the trials started, many of the head military leaders were bad mouthing the M4 DI. Defense Review is rumoring that the new rifle to win will be an AR-gas piston.

[theroadwarri0r]

@JERMBUGS gas piston systems are a solution without a problem. Unless you are running suppressed, what's the point? Even if you are running suppressed, it's not that much of an advantage. I trust direct impingement and have owned both. Who cares if the bolt gets hot on a DI gun vs. GP? Again, solution without a problem. One just gets dirtier in a different place. With modern quality ARs (DD, LaRue, LMT, BCM), you'll never have a problem if you run them wet (lubed).

[JERMBUGS]

So do you prefer a standard AR-15 GI system to a piston driven system, or even an AK for that matter? I own both but don't know which one I want to standardize for my SHTF plans. I need a little convincing one way or the other.

I'm kinda a fan of a shotgun. These days you can have a 100 slug but most of the situations are going to be under 30 yards. = shotgun.

I have an 30-06 that kills deer at 200 yards .

I do like the AR and am on the fence. Ammo was hard to get for a while. I have a great opportunity to acquire an AR through work (cheep) so it might be a good investment before I retire. Your right a pistol is nice to have but I'll hold a long gun in defense any day.
