Those suggesting the AR-15 was NOT developed as a weapon of war should read up on history. The AR-15 was developed as a military weapon to replace the M-14. Eugene Stoner designed it to be lighter and more lethal than the M-14. It was far deadlier than the M-16 used in Vietnam.

Well, since it never actually became an actual weapon of war, seeing in how it was rejected by the pentagon, I guess we can still go on buying and keeping them then, can’t we?

A semi auto .223 caliber is not a military weapon and you know that.

A knife was once used as a weapon of war. Anything can be a weapon of war. It's a blanket statement.

Can you say “a well armed militia”

Gun nuts aren’t making technically unsound arguments to convince w/ a familiarity with guns, they’re praying on people who don’t know any better, hoping to convince them there’s no difference between types of rifles or even semi auto hunting rifles vs these war machines.

There's no functional difference. The difference is aesthetic and to a degree, ergonomic. What differences specifically are you referring to?

I don't get why ppl get defensive about guns, like a child whining about getting their toy taken away. Your ppl are getting massacred yet would rather chose to stand by rather than fight for innocent lives lost. How are u gonna fight a tyrannical govt when u can't protect ur ppl?

I get a little upset when you want to take away my constitutional rights and the right to protect my family.

The 5-4 Heller SC decision represented two distinct versions of US history (and an English grammar lesson used by Scalia desperately trying to discount the clear reference to a well regulated militia as the predicate for the right to bear arms). It was and remains a bad opinion.

My m1 garand, m1 carbine, 1903, 1903a3, etc were all designed as weapons of war. I agree with a lot of your sentiments but what about those ? My Springfield trapdoor is a single shot. But it’s a weapon of war. Just ask Custer. Redefine your argument
