    The AR in AR-15 is short for "Armalite Rifle", but did you know that "Armalite" is short for "Armalittle teapot, short and stout? Here is my handle, here is my spout."

        Oh my. I'd always heard Marillion singing about MARMALITE. That makes the opening of "Forgotten Sons" a bit less surreal.https://genius.com/Marillion-forgotten-sons-lyrics …

        If you're ever bored one day, just reply to any NRA tweet with "the AR in AR-15 stands for ASSAULT RIFLE!" Angry gun etymologists will set your notifications on fire within seconds.

        I spent an hour one day replying to the angry gun nerds in other people's mentions with "Close! That's a common misconception. 'Armalite' is actually short for 'Assault Rifle Malite'."

        sorry you dumb libs, but the AR in AR-15 stands for "a revolver," the type of gun it is and the 15 is a misprint; it was supposed to be 51 in honor of the Guam statehood movement, but six guns had already been made when they caught the typo so there was nothing they could do

        I saw a picture of a #2a fan carrying an AR-47 with an impressive-looking 30-round ammo clip in the Kentucky capitol building just the other day. Yes, that ammo clip had 30 bullets in it, at least. It fires 5.62-caliber bullets. It sure does! Those high-capacity clips way cool!
