I am amazed at the lack of knowledge people against AR15's and firearms in general have. Get educated!
I have 5 AR-15s. One (the first one) was store bought. The rest are custom builds by me. I built them for target shooting at various distances. They guys on the video are a bit smarmy but 90% correct. The only thing I would find fault with, aside from their delivery, is the fact that an AR-15 in .223/5.56 caliber is not legal for hunting in many states. (In which case it doesn't matter if it is an AR or ANY pistol or rifle that uses this round. The state of VA states the round is not powerful enough to take down a deer or bear. So what does THAT tell you?) The ammunition for this caliber was built for one reason only... To cause maximum damage to human flesh. The caliber is smaller so the US soldier can carry more (weigh-wise) than the Vietcong who had AK-47s that used a 7.62 round. The bullet is designed to start a tumbling effect once it hits flesh. This generates a huge cavity in the body and, while perhaps not as powerful or lethal as the 7.62 round, it would still stop the enemy. More than likely it would wound the enemy and when his buddies came to get him... They'd get shot too.
I understand these guys frustrations and share some of them. But the NRA needs to give in a little. There needs to be more stringent laws and even perhaps permits required similar to what you need to take for concealed carry in most states. The NRA could shine if they fired Wayne LaPierre and got back on board with sportsman and hunters to represent them again instead of the gun lobby.

And you still think they should be legal?
@RiverRick But, whadda ya gonna do when forty raccoons come charging in your house at night?
I'll bet you wish you had that assault rifle in that case.
@RiverRick This could be happening somewhere.
@PondartIncbendog Not worried about raccoons... More like Trump zombies!
@RiverRick Just give them a math problem.
It is so silly to disarm USA while doing nothing to stop religious violence and invaders along our borders..... American Atheist Veterans have always been common sense about our 12 TWELVE BILL of RIGHTS the hand written original not textbook liars
