And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Interesting. I think I still like the AR-7 a bit better due to the fact everything goes into the stock. But this has some interesting features to it.
they are great too, but im thing 25rd mag and suppressor potential

been looking at those myself - it's already suppressor ready.[;)]
this and the PMR30 are my next 2 purchases.

Thus my "interesting features" addendum.

The cool factor for a parachute carbine is in the stratosphere, but for actual shooting and carrying, give me a standard M1 carbine.
This is why when I grew up I got rid of the Armalite .22.
As far as the AR7 goes you might as well have a single shot .22 takedown. It would be faster to shoot than clearing all the jambs.
I shot the he** outta mine. I do not remember it ever jamming. Not once. YVMD.
I loved mine. Just saying.
I've had just about every maker of AR-7 including the original Armalite.
All, I mean ALL jammed; a lot; most of the time. I currently have a Henry version that is still NIB so I can't tell you about it, but the others were jam-o-matics with Charter Arms being the worst. I don't think I was ever able to get through a single magazine without a jam on it. Some were quite bad that took a while to clear. The only .22 that I have ever had that jammed worse than that one was an old 187A my dad used to have when I was growing up.
That is a shame because I loved the idea and used to rough camp a lot and the way it should have worked and floated was quite cool and would have been great. Though I probably won't "need" those types of guns anymore due to the fact I don't rough it anymore. However, I still have an affinity for take down guns like the Marlin 70PSS (papoose), the Ruger 10-22TD, Springfield M6 O/U, and I guess even the old lever and pumps used to take down, at least in half.
The little Chippia (sp) seems to be about the only other one that is still a rough use little compact gun reasonably priced enough to beat around.
