Take a picture of it next to a cat.
Are you saying pistols with no option of having a rail, or pistols with no option of NOT having a rail?
Which one? I have 4.
Hogue stock, butler creek barrel vq trigger, bushnell glass, harris bi-pod that gets shared... Great gun for kids and adults alike...
Definitely. I haven't spent all that money on it because I felt I needed to (shot great out of the box), it's just fun to tinker with it, and it's WAAY cheaper than an AR.

Kali style AR-15's FTW...
I've only ever seen one that I liked, and it was actually a different lower receiver, which took standard AR uppers and mags, but had a regular looking sporter-style (non pistol grip) stock on it. I found it online somewhere once, and haven't been able to find it since.

On the hood of my Subaru.
Did it look anything like this?....
LOL no.
It was NOT a standard AR lower receiver. It was a lower receiver with a non-pistol grip stock which was designed to work with standard AR uppers and mags.

This is the ''man made disaster'' they spoke of.
"C" all of the above

Personally, I think it might be a good way to un-demonize the EBR with the sporting-only crowd.
Now that I think about it...an AR with an ATI .410 upper would be cool for trap

Have to admit, I've long been intrigued about this for a wall-piece...

Let's assume full-auto.
I wonder how many rounds you could pump through that before it started smoking and/or caught fire?

I saw a few of these at LL Bean while on vacation in Maine....I couldnt agree more

You don't even need full auto to light shtuff on fire. Dench and his M44, for example. And my SKS and I....
That being said, those would be perfect with the ATI .410 upper that I'd use for trap!
Pistols that only come with rails. There are a lot of interesting modern guns that I wish you could get without a big square muzzle with a rail. Seems like only tiny pocket guns and 1911s come that way now.
Gotcha. Makes sense, particularly if you never plan on mounting a weaponlight (or bayonet!)
Most any "tacticool" addition to an AR. Just shoot the thing already, MAYBE with a nice piece of glass. No one cares about your skull logo on the side.
Huge extended safeties on 1911's. Magwells on 1911's (yes I own one with it and I find it useless!)
Tech sights on 10/22's. I know I'll catch flak for this... but that front sight is the cheapest thing ever. Make it out of steel! And make it fit tight to the front. I own one of these too. [sad2] I'll change my opinion if it's ever improved.
Edit: I see the new versions are steel... and some have some other adjustment on them. Perhaps they're better?
