M1 Carbine vs Modern AR

[sevensix2x51]

a leaveraction would be a decient alternitive to an AR?........ fail

why not? same ballistics as an ak, and they both have fixed magazines.. and leverguns are super sweet!

I love my 44 underwood, it is also on my "never sell" list. Now, I shot plenty of M-16's(A1 and A2's mostly, along with everything else) when I was a Marine, I wwas first a SAW gunner, and then an M-16A2 with a 203 Grenade launcher, that was my favorite! Got promoted to E-4, and then they made me carry a regular A2, SO, for a rifle made in 1944, at 100 yards, it is a great, accurate shooter, BUT, for a definate increase in range and accuracy and take down capability, I would have to go for the M4/AR and carry the .30 carbine as a backup

you WERE a Marine?
with E-4, a navy rank.......

thats not what you said, you said that the USMC doesn't use the "E-*" system of promotion. as in "noone ever got e-anything..."

You won.

[m.s.g.]

I've got a buddy who's in the Marines currently, and he refers to his rank as E-#. However, it might just be in regards to payscale and not actual rank?

[sevensix2x51]

i think you lose this one. but its ok, we all lose a few internet meaningless battles. no hard feelings, im just bored.
