This video delves into the history and specifications of the Armalite AR-10B, a .308 caliber AR-pattern rifle reintroduced in 1996. The analysis highlights its development under Mark Westrom of Eagle Arms, who acquired the Armalite trademarks. Key features discussed include its AR-15-inspired elements, the availability of retro versions with iconic top-mounted charging handles, and a significant modification: the use of modified M14 magazines. This magazine adaptation was a direct response to the 1994 Assault Weapon Ban, which limited magazine capacity to 10 rounds and made acquiring affordable .308 AR magazines difficult at the time.
This video from the 2013 SHOT Show features Mark Westrom presenting Armalite's new product lineup for that year. While specific models are not detailed in the description, the context of SHOT Show and Armalite implies a focus on rifles and potentially other firearms manufactured by the company. It serves as an overview of upcoming releases from a well-known firearms manufacturer.
