[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Know What This Board Needs...Something Like HKPros "World Of HK"...

Posted: 2/10/2006 9:37:22 PM EDT

We need a "World Of The AR-15" page which documents every known variant of the M-16 / AR-15 rifle.

World Of HK

It would be an incredibly valuable referrence and in line with the original vision of this forum.

But would eat up valuable bandwidth which could be used for hate.

You kidding right? I mean in the AR Discussion area there is an ongoing thread just about PRE-M4 carbines that were developed for and/or adopted by the Military. (www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=118&t=267251)

Then we have The Black Rifle and The Black Rifle II and they don't cover every Colt variation - let alone the variations from other manufacturers (especially when you get into other calibers).

Huh? It's a fact page not a discussion forum.

He's been a Mod on at least one site. I don't think he'd get a huge warm fuzzy over it.

I agree World of HK is useful...

Sounds like a good idea to me.

Not a bad idea. It probably wouldn't be quite as interesting as the World of HK, since HK has a myriad of pistols, "assault rifles," submachine guns, precision rifles, and shotguns, while the AR-15 has....well, a bunch of rifles (with the odd La France M16K or Olympic Arms AR "handgun", etc.). Still it's worth investigatin'.

Being the "Mod" of your own myspace.com account doesnt really count......

I dunno...I have spent hours going over old issues of SAR devoted to minor M-16 variants.

Topics are hardly referrenceable and at risk to being lost to the archives.

Take a look at the HKPro page. It is really nice.

Thats a pretty good idea.

What really sets arfcom apart from the others is the comedy in the GD and the local and national equipment exchange.

You can spend a few minutes on HKpro.com , an hour at the Sigforum , but you can spend ALL DAY at ar15.com

what about this

www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=12&t=223495

lets start compiling the info anyways.

That would be a huge task. I think it's a great idea but who's going to do it? How would you set it up? Brands? Years? Development? Calibers? Accessories?

I've seen a few ideas like that and while most of them are informative, I have yet to see one that covers it all impressively, with out being a major publication. If one was to do it, they would have to put everything they could into it, or else it's just another average AR15/M16 write up.

ETA: Some names that I think would be an asset to it would be Ekie, scottryan, forest, and maybe even coldblue could add some info. I'm sure there's more as well.

I nominate Troy. It seems this was the original vision for this website. I'm just surpised it hasn't been done already.
