>they are light, cheap, pretty accurate, especially compared to rifles before they were made
Exactly. They are a weapon for pussies to wield and people thrown bullshit on them like optics because they aren't accurate for shit and they are designed to be used with the official caliber of AEW (.22). If you aren't rolling with something like an SKS (AKs are for joggers), a Winchester 70, or a 308 Remington you aren't serious. ARs are basically worthless in any shtf scenario and there is a reason midgets like Shirakawa can shoot then.
