AR (as well as other) firearm failure points

[Displaced Texan 10,593]

I spent a good amount of time reading this on AR15.com, and thought you guys might find it interesting. 
 

Many of you are probably familiar with Henderson Defense (aka Battlefield Vegas). They run a ‘shooting experience’ range in Vegas. I’ve been a time or two, and it’s a very cool experience. Highly recommend if you are in the area. 
 

Over the years, they have collected extensive data on weapon failure points, round counts, and other bits of data on all kinds of weapons. Many manufacturers are covered. 
 

I found it interesting, and I thought some of you data nerds like me would also like it.  
Warning, it’s quite the rabbit hole to go down.
