All right guys, let's here it from all you closet case Armalite fans. And I am really talking to the guys that own and fire the original AR-180 as produced by the original Armalite company their first time around, not Mark Westrom's Armalite.
Nothing against you AR-180B fans, but it just ain't the same.
I still think it is one of the best AR/Mil style rifles on the market. Still cheaper than the Sig 556 or an original Galil, or even Valmet folder. Folding stock, pistol grip, quick detach scope mount and quick acting, light weight little pellet shooter.
A few people still think of the AR-180 when producing product, but I wish someone would take that initiative and help us old collectors out a bit. I thought SIG was doing a cool thing by putting what APPEARED to be a 180 slot in their new synthetic mags. Unfortunately, I have never confirmed WHAT that slot is for, as it does NOT work on any of my Armalites and I have samples from all three manufacturers!? What the heck? What IS that little slot for SIG?
Chime in if you LOVE the AR-180! Yeah.
