I have been using my old Lee Enfield for a number of years but I have
been thinking about upgrading, I looked at the AR-15 but  I would like
software compatibility with my Lee Enfield, As I have a large amount
of amunition I wouldn't like to have to replace it with the newer
stuff necessary for use on an AR-15, does any body know of a
compatibility mode ???? 

are the AK's likely to take this both step ?????

I did hear of a group of volunteers that have built one from scratch
that will support EVERYTHING and it NEVER jams !!!!!!!

Cheers
