The AR-15 Complete Owner's Guide is intended to provide the prospective, new or experienced AR-15® owner with the in-depth knowledge he or she needs to configure, select, operate, maintain and troubleshoot his or her rifle. The Guide covers the history, applications, details of components and subassemblies, operating, cleaning maintenance, and future of perhaps the most versatile rifle system ever produced. A comprehensive Colt model number table and pre-/post-ban serial number information are included. Colt's Patent Firearms Manufacturing Co. began producing AR-15s for the civilian market circa 1963, with 25 rifles produced that year. As of this writing, the AR-15 and its clones have been in constant production for over 35 years! The AR-15-type rifle is almost certainly the last US Martial Arm that will be available to US Citizens. While the AR-15-type rifle is not a true US Martial Arm, it is as close as most of us will be able to get to the real thing. The AR-15 is suitable for use for all: male, female, young and old. It's safe to say that you are much more likely to be shooting your AR-15 than a Garand when you approach age 80! Join us as we explore the world of the AR-15, the "Swiss Army Knife®" of rifles! |
