It was a long running joke here to refer to any non Armalite large frame AR as an AR10 in his presence, as it drove him crazy that people didn’t know the difference or didn’t care to distinguish between the different patterns.

Great dude!

He was an interesting fellow!

One of his many rants that he shared with me!

“So, I guess that we can buy just anything and call it whatever the hell we want. This idiot and the ones that call all .308 ARs "AR-10".

Sounds like bloody liberals. And his other username "XXX" says that the RCMP calls them all "AR180". Well, that''s a great source to base your "reasoning" on. This board just continues to get more stupid.”

Got speed Larry! Give’em hell!
