especially for the LAST 25 YEARS OR MORE ,
and surely at least since the late 1960s,
THE BASIC ar15 PLATFORM ,in a rifle has been AMERICAS favorite rifle.
the GOVERNMENT estimates at least 15-20 million rifles have been sold,
thats an absurdly low estimate as in some individual years the sales exceed a couple million rifles and millions of assembly kits, sold.
most people don,t count the millions of un-registerd rifles assembled from components
and ignore the fact that there are tens of thousands of machines being sold every year,
that are designed to manufacture components.(and CNC program's you can down load that allow many machines to make hundreds of duplicate components.
IN A DOZEN DIFFERENT CALIBERS AND HUNDREDS OF DIFFERENT BARREL AND STOCK AND FOREARM CONFIGURATIONS,
HAS WILDLY OUT-SOLD ANY OTHER BASIC RIFLE DESIGNS,
this is partly because its a bit like an adult erector set, as its design is modular and easy to modify, and customize, and its far easier to do than gunsmith work on the older mausers , Remington and Winchester designs, that actually required more custom tools to work on.
