WTF is a black rifle? I've never heard that term before. And maybe I should shoot my pistols from the hip, being that they do have pistol grips.
Greg, Greg, Greg ..... *sigh* .... I weep.
The somewhat derogatory, sometimes scatological term "Black Rifle" has been in common usage (or, I guess not?) for @ 30+ years .... basically ever since the "last steel rifle" (the M-14) left the stage and disgruntled M-16 operators chose a less than complementary term for the "plastic replacement" ... with time and with many improvements, the term "Black Rifle" has now lost most or all of it's former less-than-desirable connotations ....

... once again, I weep ...
It's not a commonly used term anymore. I haven't heard it used in my circles... you can't hold us accountable for not being up on our 30 year old terms.
But thanks for the history lesson, learn something every day.
Once again, I weep ....
Well I guess I'm just a dumbass then. My bad, I'll work on that.
Seriously the place to go for anything ar15/m16 related. Hell I learned alot about silencers (suppressors) from this site. I show it to anyone looking for firearms info
