I’ve looked at them but have never bought one. It always seemed like its greatest selling point was that it could float. I don’t swim and don’t go on the water, so it wouldn’t do me much good. (As I tell my wife - people who can’t swim almost never drown.)

Later I saw ol’ George in “Firestarter” - still using an AR-7.
The greatest part of the AR7, the Sub 2000, the M6, etc., if it folds or takes down, it'll always appeal to that inner 13 year old that thinks its cool. If a person is buying one for that reason, well I don't think I could argue against it.
