Your recoiless is a 106, not a 105.

Lets keep it down to a 90MM, or even better a Carl Gustav, cause your not going to hump a 106MM to far!!

Actually, it was a 105 that was called a 106. Kinda like the .44 Mag is actually a .43. :)

The only time I ever saw them in service was mounted on mechanical mules at Gitmo back in the 80's. They had pretty much phased them out of line units by then, but they were still dragging them around down there.

My hump load was a Stinger missile. 60" long and 35#, plus either an M16 or a 1911 and a PRC-77 radio. One time on a 21 klic hump through the Sierra Nevada mountains in Southern Spain my teammate was falling out. I wound up humping a Stinger an M16 and a PRC-77 for the last 6 klics. THAT was a bitch. :(

Just kiddin', can't resist taking a shot at that women. Makes me laugh every time, making herself out to be a complete moron to all of the gun-owning American public.

I personally find the AR platform to be a pretty ingenious design. It's definitely gone through some major upgrades over the years. So for personal favorite, that's what I'd say.

Just for clarification, and please pass this on, the AR as used in the semi-auto rifles I use for hunting stands for Armalite Rifles, not assault rifles.
Just so we are all clear.

Actually the "AR" as in AR-15 stands simply for ArmaLite, not ArmaLite Rifle.

The ArmaLite AR-5 was a break open over/under .22 Hornet/.410 shotgun.
There was also an ArmaLite AR-17 that was a 12ga shotgun. http://store.vintagepaperads.com/ser...h-17-12/Detail
