I didn't want to hijack or drift in another thread, and anymanusa got into a difference of opinion about stocks.
So: For all that I've messed around with ARs since back in the early 1980s (I've traded through four; have one now), I still prefer conventional. Conventional quasi-pistol-grip, not the straight style as in the Model 94.
My thesis is that the conventional is more of a natural positioning of my wrist, and holding/mounting the rifle "just comes naturally". For the AR-style, holding/mounting is more of a learned or trained process.
Note that this is sort of a trivial thing, really, and not worth getting excited about.
Okay: Opinions?
