I'm a guy that thinks R. Lee Ermey is right that the military was stupid to dump the M-14 for the AR platform. With a little bit of retooling for using optics the M-14 outclasses the AR family. We were stupid to ever fall into the trap that everything we have in military small arms has to be ammo compatible with what NATO as a whole is using. They want to use an over-hyped centerfire .22 variant let them. We should have stuck with the more powerful round. The fact that we didn't is why I would go with the AK SBR in 5.56x45mm. There's just a bunch more of that ammo going around. If all things were equal then, yes, I'd go with the old 7.62x51mm NATO round.
