AR Rifles..

Now that we are touching on suppressors for AR's. What recommendations do you have for a 5.56? I do love my AAC Halycon on my Ruger Mark IV Lite!

You are 100% correct.

I don't see it happening overnight in this country. However if there was an outright ban and forfeiture, like there have been in other countries; with penalites, including serious jail time; how many of you would actually stash your guns away? Even if you did use them later for self defense you are going to be in more trouble than the criminal you are defending against.

The next 20 years are going to see some changes, as a new generation takes control. A lot of things such as the electoral college have bullseyes on them; people don't like the very thing it was designed to do. We also as a nation aren't as inclined to take control of our destiny as our ancestors were.

Gun violence never was a gun problem. It's always been a violence problem.

I'm sure assault and murder predate projectile weaponry. Clubs, spears, and arrows were classic assault weapons before firearms were dreamed of.

Common modern assault weapons include motor vehicles, IEDs, and kitchenware, and quite a few others if you look elsewhere than the US.

"Common assault weapons.........."????
How is it that an AR-15 is ALWAYS referred to as an "assault weapon"?
An AR-15 ..... IS NOT a military style "assault weapon", any more than a .22 cal. rifle is.
AR stands for Armalite Rifle......not "assault rifle"!

AGREED... NOT A CHANCE!

The old grind never once referred to the AR as such. Your the person that just regurgitated that.

But to say it's not military style is Idiocracy. It is an absolute visual match to the M4 used today by our military. It's parts are mostly all perfectly interchangable. So style.... Yes. The AR that we all know and love is more than military style. It's the very exact military rifle in use around the globe today... Save for the fitting group.

I own a few Colt AR rifles. I can swap parts with my son in the Marines and it would be like for like. I can file a part or two and make it not select fire but full auto.

When I hear other gun nuts try to say that mine and their AR are not military style weapons I know right away that I'm hearing a fool.

Yes, they may be "military style" but that is it... "Style" other than that they are like any other semi auto sporting gun. And if you (you in general, not you in particular) don't think I could assault you with my daughters cricket then there is something wrong.

one could also argue the 1911 is also an military style. made for military use
