You're right about that. But the magazine fed rifle was much better than 10-round stripper clips, which oddly informed the enemy when it was empty...that CLING! The recoil of the M-14 was a little better than the M-1, but still a beast over protracted shooting. I swear I believe the reason I have a bum right shoulder is due to firing thousands of rounds with the M-14. So I think that is why I like the AR platform now, easier on my antique shoulder.
Haven't shot an AR-10 but have shot plenty of AR-15s in different configurations. I bought my first one because the Left didn't want me to... hehehe, f#*k 'em.

That .308 is a bitch even in an AR-10.
