in general

Well the cheap 15's are probably not that reliable either.

It's not like you can stamp them out of a used shovel like the Aks

you can build a more than reliable ar for 800-550

its the ar-10s that are finnicky

A shame really.

they are fine

just a little expensive

7.62x51mm is the better caliber tbh.

than what?

5.56x45

it is more powerful not better

has more recoil less controllable

weighs more in magazines

That's true.

guns have to weigh more

really different purposes

Yeah.

not really better

I wouldn't say 10mm is better than 9mm

I wouldn't say 45 acp is better than 9mm

What about .40?

That's my pistol tbh.

.40 is a good caliber

it's what most cops use these days

a little more than a 9mm

That's kind of what I was thinking when I bought it.

the fbi originally used 10mms

Just more common ammo types in US.

than they realzied the fbi were limp wristed

and they started loading them soft

As good as the moist nugget is you can't really find 7.62x54r

and then they starting making smaller caliber 40 s&w

Just pricey and you have to find the right spot for it.

IDK i think 9mm makes sense today still

it's what the us military uses

40 is good too

nothing wrong with either

I have an adversion to 9mm because of what I heard about the Baretta.

what have you heard about the berreta?

That the machining is less than awesome and is really inaccurate.
