Whether a shooter or collector, inside the cover of this third book in the "Shooter's and Collector's Guide" series is a minutely detailed history of Eugene Stoner's AR15 and M16 rifles. The development of the M16 rifle is traced from the adoption of the first American-made flintlock musket in 1798 through Vietnam and the Gulf War to the present to show how the history of the country's military requirements molded the need for a small caliber, large magazine capacity, select fire rifle. The development of the M16/AR15 rifle as the current National Match Service Rifle for civilian and military target shooting is also described. It is safe to say that no other general issue military -derived rifle in the history of this, or any other nation, is as inherently accurate If you are interested in the history of this fine battle rifle, or in tactical, bench rest, service rifle competition, or in just every day fun plinking, then this book will provide all the information you need to select, maintain, shoot and keep in good repair any AR15 rifle. The M16/AR15 Rifle provides a complete list of all models and variations being produced today complete with their features to aid in selection. It also provides a part-by-part break description for the M16 and AR15 rifles and their variations and the M4 series of carbines. Want to use your AR15 in competition? A detailed chapter describes the interaction needed between custom gunsmith and shooter to produce a tack-driving rifle, plus a survey of parts and accessories from barrels to sights. Three custom AR15s were built in the process of writing this book space gun, service match rifle and .22 rimfire version for short range and indoor practice. The step-by-step process is described. Also included are chapters on ammunition selection, shooting, maintenance and repairs, telescopic sights, .22 rimfire conversions, .308 AR15-type rifles and the future of the American military rifle as embodied in the OCIW concept. The M16/AR15 Rifle is as complete a book on the M16 and AR15 rifles as you could wish for.
