  Just a blip ROLL Sorry about the little blip yesterday. I was reading something when of a sudden I grabbed my AR56 and ran down the street looking for squirrels, I guess. It was a good thing. I spent time with the neighbors, got to know some of our volunteer fireman and police officers a little better, and got some new vitamins. Getting outside once in a while does a body good, I always say. |

I, personally, find it refreshing to step out for a breath of fresh air in such a fashion. Mind you, a privacy fence does wonders at times like these. Or living in the "outback" so you CAN do this in the front yard.

I was so distracted by that image that I didn't notice it the first time. AR16?!?
AR15 or M16, civilian version (semi auto only) vs. military verison (full-auto with bayonette lug and optional threaded barrell, depending on year).
Regardless of AR or M, it's still just a high-velocity .22. Not enough punch-through power, IMO.
Favorite tool in the rack is my Springfield M1 Garand (30.06 !!) If a couple rounds from that won't fix your problem, you're having a bad day.
The M1 was designed for marksmen, where infantry was trained to actually aim at individual targets, built before the Vietnam-era strategy of "suppressive fire" became the norm and shots/kills ratios didn't require three digits.
As far as modern military rifles, I perfer the FN-FAL (.308 Winchester) over the M16. The FAL is too damned long and heavy, but is a very capable medium-distance rifle. As the Israelis proved in 1967 and again in '73. -

What OregonGuy wrote! If you were shooting squirrels when you had Big Teddy running nude in your yard, you're needing more than fresh air. ;))

What the black spot on the lawn in the rollover? Look like an intentional smudge.

The compromise vehicle between the Garand and the FAL -and my choice- is the M1A, the semiauto version of the M14. Lighter and handier than the FAL, and accurate as hell.
