Rsquared Posted October 2, 2015 Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 But hey...there's always the "we paid for the right to use the name, so it's authentic" rifles available.We can split hairs all day long. Last time I checked, my receivers say AR on them........not RRA. HAAA! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sisco Posted October 2, 2015 Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 No offense taken, us "people" understand the need try to make jokes when confronted with the inadequacies of other wannabe rifles. Just remember, you too could have the real AR-10.....Amen, Amen. When I need a 308 AR that doesn't jam, doesn't FTF, Doesn't FTE, and puts it Out at an MOA or less, Armalite, baaby, that's the name.

Sure ours do...they just have an 'L' in front, LAR-8.Yours may say "Armalite" but there's a bunch of motorcycles made in the past 25 years that say "Indian" too. Doesn't make it so.

LMAOof course, that is because of the 5,000 more problems with DPMS. Makes sense. All the Armalite owners are at the range using their problem free rifles instead of being on a forum figuring out how to fix them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sisco Posted October 2, 2015 Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 The Cerebrus group was trying to sell DPMS and couldn't find any takers. Well I could always buy a Remington/Bushmaster/etc. etc. . Wait, no I couldn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't make it so.I could talk about he new Indians for hours. Been hip deep in them since Polaris reintroduced them as 2014 models. Yes, they are owned by Polaris.The Indians made in the late '90s and early 2000s don't have anything at all to do with the newest ones. Of course.Hey!

My buddy was actually seeking them out for rebuilds, as he could demonstrate they had a higher QC under AMF than did the rides immediately prior and immediately after AMF.

That was Harley Davidson, you knucklehead (engine-design pun intended). The same people that made soccer balls and badminton equipment made Harleys...What? You quoted two different posts, one about the Indian name being bought and sold, with no relation to the original company (ala Armalite).Then another about AMF possibly putting together the H-D and the Armalite names together for some sort of collector set (since they were so AWESOME at using famous labels on non-related products).Maybe they can double-brand hop and add in a AMC Limited Edition Hurst Jeepster Commando to haul everything around with!Now say outloud "Potato-potato" five times real fast. Who's the knucklehead now?! <dancing banana> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
