Renegade,
I thought of that pic when I was reading the OP.

I was surprised though that it didn't mention what superdave alluded to:
It's tolerance for cycling with dirty ammunition.

I remember reading articles about the problems with the early 16s and that that the 7.62x39 is the key to the A's dirt tolerance...
