I've been chewing the kud over what gun is right for me and I have been fairly impressed by so called "assault rifles" and the two big boys in that category require no introduction. I really want to like the AR because of it's potential for customization, and the excellent ergonomics, but I was watching a video by IV8888 where they had a little shootout and found that at around 100 yards grouping was very similar which shook my notion that AR15's were more accurate; and of course reliability was discussed though I don't think that's very applicable to my situation.
However I see many nations like the US using weapons similar to the AR and it has the reputation as being the choice of professionals, but with a smaller bullet or a ballasticilly inferior (According to IV8888 5.45 is ballisticaly superior) and with a higher cost; why do so many people choose AR pattern rifles?
