Couple things about the AR-15 and the alt-right & NRA-pimper arguments
So, one of the NRA alt-right pimpers argument about the AR-15 is that it's not an assault weapon and that THOSE are already banned. The ban on automatic weapons does not include semi-automatics (like the AR-15). That's a problem because those should be banned too.

Both automatic and semi-automatic weapons should be banned -- anything that shoots multiple rounds quickly to massacre many people at one time (not for self-defense or hunting) should be banned. These weapons do not belong in civil society.

AR stands for Armalite Rifle (not automatic rifle). Armalite is the manufacturer who makes it - one of the ones NRA pimps for. It inexplicably does not meet US federal requirements to be considered an assault rifle.

That federal requirement must change or be amended to include semi-automatic weapons such as the AR-15. Just a few things to keep in mind when arguing with alt-right NRA-pimping terrorists who think more guns that shoot more bullets faster is a good idea.

Just in case - if anyone gets into a "discussion" with one of these people over this. Be armed with proper info.

Gee.  Armalite makes ALL the "AR" rifles.  I built five of mine, have one that was made by Bushmaster and another by Smith & Wesson.

A true assault rifle is, by military definition, selectable semi- or full-automatic. The scariest looking AR-15 is no more deadly than Uncle Henry's semi-automatic deer rifle.

Arguably Armalite does make the best version of the AR-15 and AR-10 but I am biased!! :-)

I wonder if they would ban the AR-7 also?

Henry Firearms makes that now.  From what I've heard. they've made big strides in the quality control of the weapon.

**** you asshole ! As long as there are feral democrats running around and endangering people under the guise of Antifa and Black Lives Matter, but calling them  peaceful protests, we need weapons like the AR-15.

My dad taught me how to shoot with the Remington pump-action .22 model before the 552--was it the 121?  He still has that rifle, but it's been broken down for the last few years.

Here is a mafamatics question,

If you have an AR15 x 2, divided by 3 do you get an AR10?
