Wanna Fight? The Top 5 Combat Rifles of All-Time

What’s the quickest way to start a fight? Be conservative or liberal, black or white, American, a man, or the easiest way—just be me. Another way to start a fight is declare you have ‘the’ list of the best combat rifles from the last century. So come one, come all! I am challenging all takers to come up with a better list! It’s King of the Hill time, and I am looking for anyone who thinks they have what it takes to knock me off my royal throne.

My first step was to compile a list, which was harder than you may think. The first few entries came easy enough, and then a few more. Before I knew, the list grew into a leviathan—that was the easy part. The hard part came when I tried to whittle the list down to just five and then decide the order.

Before I knew it, I was fighting with myself. The honorable mentions were many, but I save them and see what the challengers offer.

  1. I agree with em on all except the M-16. Ive heard to many stories from dad about them jamming in a fire fight in Vietnam. I know the new M4 is a better gun but i don't think i can make up for the M-16.

    1. Thanks and I have a MN carbine and an AK. I had an M-1 in military school and a M-2 carbine in Vietnam. I've only fired a M-16 once, so all I know is what I have heard and read. I have Glocks and AK's because I know they will always fire.
