I agree with you on the end result, but I take issue with your rifles edge. I think you're focusing a bit too much on range here. This is a small city these two are in with plenty of buildings, obstacles, and cover. There's no long sightlines that the AR-15 can really take advantage of. And anyways the author was off about the AR's range by about 50 yards anyways, so this reduces it even more. These two are mostly going to be in closer range engagements and the weapon that can output more rounds quicker usually performs better.
