[QUOTE="sh00ter, post: 2127060, member: 24531"] Carbine AR's lose lubrication faster and get dirty and sluggish if not well maintained...if you want your life to depend on this gun in SHTF scenario, you better get plenty of cleaning supplies for the field. Semi-auto has less of an issue so you have that going for you, and you can upgrade to chrome bolt carrier group to lessen the carbon. But DI (direct-gas-impingement) was never meant to be used in a short carbine gas system so that compounds the issues the full-sized outdated M-16 design already had. Congrads, but just know your limitations if this is a SHTF rifle.. [/QUOTE]
