Good call, sir. I think this option is a good compromise between continued construction of the relatively complex, finely finished M16/AR15 and switching to a simpler design using a different cartridge (i.e. the AK-47) or a battle rifle firing a heavier round.

Relatively simple construction, solid design, familiar/common ammunition. I think this is the right call.
