An AR is not a sniper rifle.

You’re being kind. The AR was designed for one purpose- to put a lot of lead in the air and to keep firing when other guns jammed or were rendered useless by the mud and dust of the battlefield. It was never any sort of precision instrument. Its receiver was/is stamped metal- which makes for being able to produce huge numbers of weapons cheaply. It was a reliable weapon, but not all that capable when it came to aimed, single shot fire.
