The AR-10, a semi-automatic rifle, is often regarded as the predecessor to the AR-15, a popular rifle in the United States. It was designed by Eugene Stoner in the late 1950s and was initially intended for military use. The AR-10 is known for its accuracy, reliability, and modularity, making it a popular choice among both civilian and military shooters.
The AR-10 is typically chambered in .308 Winchester, a powerful cartridge that is well-suited for long-range shooting. It features a gas-operated action, which means that it uses the expanding gases from the fired cartridge to cycle the action and eject the spent casing. The AR-10 also has a variety of features that make it easy to customize, including a removable handguard, adjustable stock, and a variety of available accessories.
