Ink Spots is a blog dedicated to the discussion of security issues across the spectrum of conflict and around the world. Our contributors are security professionals with interests and expertise ranging from counterinsurgency, stability operations, and post-conflict environments to national security strategy, security cooperation, and materiel acquisition. We hope this site will be a forum for discussion on both the issues of the day and broader, long-term developments in the security sphere.

Pretty much everything you'd ever want to know about the manufacture of M-16s and M-4s
I think you're more likely to have a rational discussion about abortion, taxes, or health care than about the M4/M16 issues. The comments at that link confirm this. Too many people have strongly held views with little to no basis in reality. It's like trying to talk a cult member out of a cult.
Schmedlap -- Agree. I would've hoped that in a post specifically dedicated to the manufacture of these weapons rather than related performance issues, that could've been avoided. But like you said, the comments section says otherwise.
