Actual automatic weapons are heavily regulated.

Maybe for some people.  I think most people want an effective and manageable weapon that gives them a reasonable chance of defending themselves in most, if not all, conceivable scenarios.  The reason the AR15 is so popular is that it is a low recoil firearm, making it easily used by people of all physical ability/size.  I've taken several women to the range for the first time and every single one of them commented on how much easier it was to shoot than they expected.

Neat.  I'd point out that it's probably weird to some folks how a thread about a mass shooting turns into a commercial for the AR15, but here we are.

You mean it's odd that a thread got derailed?  That never happens.  Wink

And mostly considered impractical for anything other than providing cover fire or defending an entrenched position. Those with Rambo dreams of mowing down foes in a SHTF situation know nothing of the logistics necessary for their merry militia group.

Notice we're still waiting on an answer?  Dude wants to spout BS talking points but gets annoyed when asked to actually define them.  Yet the same people will give Luvnit a bunch of crap for spouting propaganda.  Lots of hypocrisy here from people with zero self awareness.

And unless you are on a triceratops hunting trip, this 'assault' word is somehow telling you what is this weapon built for.

Then you might as well call a shotgun, a 9mm pistol and several other firearms owned by both left and right citizens as war weapons. The military issues an array of different pew pew's depending on the need, MOS and rank. If Joe Biden owns a firearm, there's a good chance the military issues it. If you own a firearm, there's a good chance the military issues it. Yes, even the .22 caliber is issued by the military. So in the sake of your opinion, everything should be used as a war weapon. Also including knives, pencils, pens, and BB's.

Who named it an “assault rifle”? Not the military. Really isn’t “assault” implied when speaking of any weapon?

I'm glad to be validated for always regarding you as a professional.
