>Why does any civilian need an assault rifle? What possible use could it have?
A semi-automatic rifle, like the AR-15, is an ideal firearm in a fight against violent, organized groups, especially government tyranny. There's a reason it's called the 21st century musket.
>That's ridiculous. We live in a liberal democracy of laws. We ARE the government, and your fear of tyranny is completely unfounded
Ignoring the genocides and crimes of other governments, deranged spree killers like those in the news recently have nothing on Uncle Sam.

That's just a sample of massacres committed against often unarmed non-soldiers, men, women, and children, by the government, not including any of the many killings from the Civil War. Then on top of that you have countless massacres from other things like labor disputes, lynchings, or race or religious riots. The United States is a bloody country, it always has been and it probably always will be. Shit hits the fan more often than many of us would like to admit, and when that happens you'll want an AR-15 and probably some buddies with them too.

OP, tell me something, what is the difference between an "assault" rifle and a rifle?
And if you can't provide an answer within 60 seconds, you are a moron.
>>77038002
Because it's the only thing we have to keep our government from being a full blown dictatorship.

No answer. OP, confirmed for moronic shill.

You forgot Blair Mountain (1921):

>>77041209
fucking right
There are so many examples of governments killing their people en masse, but Americans often think we're an exception and that sort of thing couldn't happen under our government, when in fact it has. Many times.
And again, that's not even taking non-governmental threats into account, which happen frequently still today.
>>77038886
There is no fucking difference. "Assault Rifle" just sounds scary, and they look scary.

Daily reminder
>>77042881
Assault rifles are select fire, as in they can fire semi-automatically and burst or auto. Civilian AR-15s are "modern sporting rifles" and fire only semi-automatically.

>>77038002
The founders gave us gun rights so we could shoot tyrants.
The problem is not guns but culture, which has been poisoned by (((someone))).

this.
Why do you need to vote? You most likely haven't
Why do you need due process? You aren't criminal
Why do you need freedom to gather? You probably don't lead a movement
We're pretty safe right now, of course you don't NEED certain things. But one day you might. People much smarter than you decided your personal defense was important enough to protect
>>77038002
>against often unarmed
arm them so it's even
>>77038002
You're absolutely right. Only faggots need assault rifles.
Oh wait...
>all these kneejerk replies from people who read the title and nothing else
are you guys so eager to have your anonymous voice heard on a board full of shitposting that you can't even take the time to read what the thread is about?
>>77048519
Nah mate, I was just pretending.
Why would I be so eager to have my voice heard on a mongolian underwater basket weaving forum?
Legitimate non ironic question. I knew nothing about guns a while ago, and I'm only starting to learn a little now because I'm interested in getting my license and owned one or two riffles. So my question:
What the fuck is an assault rifle? What separates it from another semi automatic? I was looking at cheap sks riffles in my area that are really cheap. Are those assault riffles?
>>77038002
With a bunch of nut job muzzies running around there is no way I am giving up my guns. Get rid of muzzies first, than we can talk.
>>77048791
Pic related. The culture of my Yugoslav ancestors I'd like to honour
>>77048791
If it's black and really scary-looking it's an assault rifle. Bonus assault points if it has a removable clipazine and a shoulder thing that goes up. A bayonet, like the uber-assault SKS you'd like to buy would make it not just an assault rifle but also a baby seal killing assault rifle.
>>77048891
SKS are fun.
>>77049005
Killing baby seals would fix the destroyed economy of an entire coast of my country
>>77049005
Clipazines are truly terrifying
>>77038002
That is a fine looking weapon, link to buy or the build?

The only thing more terrifying is a high capacity assault one. Or tactical bacon.
