    If I recall correctly, those are a quite rare AR-10 variant with single digit amounts still surviving. The featureless muzzle in this picture always catches my eye.

      What makes this variant so rare?

        Rather than guess from memory, I looked it up.

        The rifles were made on contract for KLM, and had a combination of features specific to that run. No one feature was too crazy, but this particular contract run of rifles was a small batch, and thus rare. 16 inch barrels with no muzzle device, semi-auto only, takedown pins on a chain.

          takedown pins on a chain

          That’s a thing?! That’s so smart!!! I gotta look into an aftermarket version of that. Like, I don’t expect to lose the takedown pin nor do I think I’ll ever really find myself taking it out somewhere I would drop it, but can’t hurt to make extra sure I can’t drop it.

            The length of the chain may also be a detriment if you’re carrying it anywhere it could snag.

      What features would you otherwise find on a muzzle?

      She probably is hot wearing such a heavy coat, but it’ll be needed under the same circumstances as the gun.
