[QUOTE="NotLongRange, post: 2986837, member: 28915"] They can tend to be heavy (not always), the magazine, even the relatively small ones, protrude from the bottom of the rifle. Most of the slings made for ARs aren’t necessarily 2-point slings made for carrying. I generally don’t carry my rifle around with a round in the chamber and safety engaged and with a bolt action I can feed a round in the chamber much more quietly than a semi-auto. Most ARs don’t balance all that well and can tend to be muzzle heavy, making them a pain to carry. Again…I have a couple of ARs and they’re ok for varmint hunting, but you simply don’t see many hunters using them in the Rocky Mountain region for big game. The vast majority of people use bolt action rifles. People generally don’t hunt with semiautomatic rifles around here period. The Browning BAR isn’t popular either… That may be different for people hunting whitetail deer/wild hogs in the South and Midwest. [/QUOTE]
