WOW..Is the AR forum a war zone or is it sportsmen with AR's?Two very different situations and needs and especially,stress's on the weapon.

Being on topic,Smith and Wesson knows as we all do,semi-auto's can and do fail mostly due to the magazines, whether an M-16 or a 45 ACP, used and feeding and that is one reason Smith and Wesson send out Mag Pul mags with there weapons and have the reputation of flawless use.

Not to say others are not..Just saying on mags.

The new Colts in Nam failed and failed and there still failing in the new wars in sand or whatever.The AK always has been more reliable but less accurate...But that is my opinion only.
