@Blackvegetable  

Clem, How does your argument concerning a 50 year old weapon platform, a weapon not produced in 40 years, apply to today’s weapons?

You introduced the Sporter in a desperate attempt to create a "civilian provenance" for the AR15 style assault sporting thing 

Now that it has been completely trashed for that purpose, you'd prefer to forget it.

Not a variant. The Colt Armalite 15 Semi Automatic Sporter marketed to civilians and law enforcement in 1964 is a redesigned M16 marketed to the Military. The M16 is has a 3 position selector switch (safe, semi, auto) allowing the operator to fire a single shot OR Automatic using Nato 5.56 MM rounds. The Sporter is a SEMI AUTOMATIC firing a .223 round using a different barrel, 2 position selector switch (safe, semi), different bolt, sear, gas pressure, muzzle velocity. The internal workings, so to speak. The 1964 Sporter externally used the same type hand guards, trigger guard, stock. The upper and lower receiver appeared similar. But what makes it a gun is distinctly and mechanically different. This has all been posted for you.



So now that we are aware of what we are actually discussing please begin telling me what is factually incorrect with what I posted.

I'd say we're done here.....
