You mean to tell me a 60 year old rifle design is somehow not as ergonomic, user friendly, or accurate as modern ones?!?! Im shocked! SHOCKED, I SAY!

BTW is there a marker to cover fine scratches created by removing the hand guard?

You might try Aluminum Black by Birchwood Casey to touch up nicks and scratches on black parts: https://www.brownells.com/gunsmith-tools-supplies/metal-prep-coloring/blackening-browning/aluminum-black-prod4941.aspx

But I'm still scratching my head as to its point. I mean... why even write it in the first place?

Clearly, the author is on FN's payroll and is attempting to lure people away from the M1A to the (insanely overpriced) SCAR platform.
