The thumbnail is a ar18 derivative! Mcx or brn180
AR does not stand for assault rifle !
Build it yourself and save a ton of money. I built a 10 and a 15 for about 1600 complete. With quality parts. East peazy
Sure criminals just use any gun AR Is an amazing gun remember it NEVER the firearm it’s the human behind it also means AR Work for self defence I’d say high capacity yet less penetration than most hunting rifles
Whoaaa, “loathe its role in SO MANY mass shootings”? BY category and availability of “assault tools, weapons”, etc it’s NOT used a lot. Granted, the MORE attention PAID to its “role”, the more popular IT WILL BE. Guaranteed..
Every American Citizen should get one as a Gift. 🎁 🎄
My favorite part with where the thumbnail isn’t even an AR…
Looks good! 👍
Nice, informative video. Thanks.
But, one thing…
You said in the video at 2:40:
“… the rifle was so successful and popular with GIs that a civilian, strictly ‘automatic’ version, was soon produced, known as the Colt AR-15.”
Shouldn’t that have been “SEMI-automatic”?
AR rifles being called assault rifles are no different than people calling a rifle a sniper rifle. Assault rifle, Sniper rifle is the media term for these firearms. You can turn any rifle into a sniper rifle. the media will claim any rifle being an assault rifle. Do you remember the DC sniper ? he had a Bush master AR And the media deemed it a sniper rifle, Big misconception. It should be sniper's rifle I mean it is a tool. And AR should be just an AR. Or like you say America's rifle.
everyone claims that they can hit the 12" circle of a man's vitals at 300m. Well, the brain of an elk or moose is a 6" circle, so they should therefore be able to hit that brain at 150m, eh? The shorter distance means that wind, up and downhill grades, mirage, target movement all cause CONSIDERABLY less than half as many problems at hittig a 6" disk 150m than the 308 has hitting a 12" disk at 300m. You can use a baited tree stand at night, and BRACE the rifle on something, with night sights and NVD goggles. Animals dont fear humans nearly as much at night as they do in daylight. So you CAN forage big game just fine with the 223 and 60 gr softpoints
The AR15 is the most popular rifle platform on the planet. Though not the most reliable the AR 15 is definitely the most versatile rifle money can buy
