Another well put together video by Mrcolionnoir. I just wished he didn't keep referring to them as assault rifles.
better yet, take them out shooting with the black rifleMy goal is to, once a week, take one of these uneducated, we don't keep score and everybody gets a trophy, douchebags to the nearest LGS and have them hold a scary black military machine gun assault weapon while educating them about the thing they want to ban without even understanding it. Then I will remind them that without that beautiful effeciant tool they are holding, they most likely would not have the right secured to stand before me and try to take it away.
Whether the term is completely accurate or not, the only difference between the M16/M4 and an AR-15 is the burst/auto fire capability. They are, for all intents and purposes, the same rifle. In fact, aimed, purposeful semi-auto fire can be more deadly, depending on the skill of the user.
I believe that he, gunowners, many others including the anti-gun crowd, and myself have mistakenly called the semi-automatic AR style rifles we own "assault rifles".
As gunowners, we need to stop referring to these as "assault rifles" because they are not. If we started using more technically correct terms for the firearms we own, we can then state that we don't have "assault rifles" simply because they are not select fire.
