The AR-15 rifle was designed by Eugene Stoner for Armalite in the late 1950s as a lightweight assault rifle for military use. It was initially adopted by the United States Air Force and later became the basis for the M16 rifle used by the U.S. military during the Vietnam War. The AR-15 term now generally refers to the civilian semi-automatic variants of this rifle, which have been popular among gun enthusiasts for their modularity, reliability, and accuracy.
