Too much damn plastic for my taste. What happened to all the real gun designers like JM Browning and John Garand or Sam Colt, Mikhail Klashnikov, and Eugene Stoner. It seems like no one can come up with a new or even original weapon design anymore.

You can have these new "space age" rifles, I'll stick with my tried and true designs that have been around for the better part of a century.

Edit: Sorry, I am a little cranky after five install of various OS's trying to fix my computer and recover all my data.
