"Armalite rifle" is a term used to describe two rifles developed for the Armalite Division of the Fairchild Aircraft Company - the AR-15, and the AR-18. The AR-15 was developed from the earlier AR-10. The AR-15 and AR-18 were both designed by Eugene Stoner.
The AR 15 is a rifle, not a caliber. the .223 is a caliber. Usually the AR-15 is made in caliber .223.
Eugene Stoner.
ARmalite Model 15 but it very commonly thought to be automatic rifle.
If you are talking about the AR-15, then depending on what local we are talking about, then they are not illegal. AR-15 stands for Armalite 15, not assault rifle, and They are available to be bought in the united states in almost all areas.
When Armalite first developed the rifle, they gave it the nomenclature of AR-15. When they sold the rights to Colt, Colt continued using the AR-15 name, and applied it to all variants of the rifle (usually accompanied by a model number). M16 is a military nomenclature - the rifles are still AR-15 rifles, but built to certain specifications, as required by military and law enforcement customers.
No real advantage to it.
