    Bushmaster or DPMS are still better in combat than an AK-47 and by the way, Chile and Jordan armies are issued DPMS ....

    Some of these so-called gun fighters had better stick to shooting at targets, they don't shoot back.

    LOL really? How do you figure questionable QC and poor manufacturing beat out quality and combat proven reliability? I wasn't aware Chile bought DPMS anything, they have Colts and maybe someone screwed up somewhere and bought some DPMS but they primarily use locally made SIG 55X series clones.

    Aside from the claim by DPMS do you have knowledge of this? When I was in Jordan I saw Colt M4's, and the Special Forces were using the G36. There is also a rumor that they are going to start producing the LWRC 6.8. If I was in that environment I would choose an AK47 over a DPMS or BM.

    I disagree, a poorly built AR v. a solid AK ? I try to stay away from the AK v AR arguments but come on.

    my poorly built AR is my coyote and prairie dog rifle and is very accurate and I have owned AK's and SKS's and still do... no comparison in range and accuracy...

    Neither of which will be very useful if the gun fails.

    I'm with Iraqgunz on this, what is your source for Jordan? Everytime I've worked with them they had either Colt M16A1s, Colt M16A2 (with auto not burst) and Colt M4A1. This was with the Jordian SF units from 85-98' when I trained with them in Jordan.

    Wouldn't an A2 with auto be an A3?

    In the US Armed Forces yes, but the M16A3 wasn't classified until the late 90s. These Colt M16A2s had full auto instead of the 3 round burst that our new M16A2s had, time frame was 1987-88 when I was in Wadi Rum in Jordan. On a similiar note USJFKSWC had M16A2 Carbines (thats what was marked on the receiver) with full auto before the adoption of the M4A1.
