    Never got why folks liked the ar15 besides maybe being easy to modify and being magazine based. Personally I wish it was a semi auto variant of the B.A.R. that caught on would also make a damned impressive hunting rifle to boot.

      Magazine fed 30-06 rifles have been popular hunting riles for a while. Just not with 30 round magazines, due to weight and it being illegal in most places to hunt with that many rounds in a magazine.

        Fair enough, im moreso annoyed its not the iconic rifle. I guess it keeps in from being tainted though.
