Armalite AR18 info.

The Daewoo is the one I was thinking of. Never been inside one myself. Can't think of another now. Maybe I was wrong?

BTW the AR18 had a big brother that went nowhere. It was the AR16, and no, I don't mean the AR15, which became the M16. The AR16 was 7.62 NATO and was a beefier version of the AR18 - stamped steel and not cast aluminum like the AR15. I still have an old Gun World mag from 1962 with the story and pictures of it. If my scanner worked I would post it somewhere. Maybe I can scan it at the office?

I know what the AR-16 looks like, the wooden buttstock with recoil pad is different. The 7.62mm AR-16 magazine almost looks like the FN FAL mag. The AR-17 was a shotgun

I still think the AR-18 and L85A1 are related.

I still think the AR-18 and L85A1 are related.

No argument from me on that point.
