why do Americans feel the need to own a military grade assult rifle?

do they think war is going to break out? is that not what the military is for? im all for people owning guns, but not guns that can kill 50 people in 15 minutes. a hunting rifle and a handgun is the only thing that should be available to the public

That's not a assault rifle op. It doesn't have a forward grip and it looks like it's semi auto.

>>690147730
Soldier in military only use semi-auto. Fully auto is just for cover fire. It's impossible to shot accurately even with just a 3 round burst. Soldiers are trained to not waste ammo.

dubs speak the truth. But 3 round burst is accurate through, a good shooter can keep it to a 4-5 inch spread, so a shot right in the center of the torso is likely to hit the target with all three shots.

>>690148647
Which I might add is why the .223 is the military standard. It's as accurate as the most accurate of hunting rifles, but with little recoil and a 20-30 round magazine, makes it a military grade rifle.

>>690149407
Generally, caliber although that's not always true. Action is fairly irrelevant outside of instances like PA.
A number of states specify 24 as a minimum, 5.56/.223 being 22.4 caliber falls short of that.
If you were hunting game for which 5.56/.223 were a generally suitable caliber or were using an upper of another caliber 6.8/300/ect, an AR would make a fantastic rifle which you could easily suit to the circumstances of your hunt, whether a shorter handier brush gun or anything else may be ideal.
When people, sometimes even people within the firearms and hunting community, hear the term hunting rifle, they tend to think of the sporting rifle of yesteryear. Perhaps a butchered service rifle or the ubiquitous M70/R700, mostly because that's what is portrayed in media.

Sure are, when you are trying to fix someone in place so something ELSE, like artillery, can do the killing.

When you don't HAVE fucking support elements to do the killing for you, everything that isn't fed by a belt and/or mounted to a hardpoint on a vehicle gets switched to...get ready for it...

Most people don't even understand what the 2nd ammendment even really means. Which by that their going to say what ever they think is right..if you don't understand the reason then you should ask a dumb question in the first place. Criminals are going to be criminals so who give a shit about rifle vs handgun.. it won't stop them being a criminal. Those who buy shit out legally won't be shooting up a place for no reason. So if you don't like the idea of owning a gun then don't get one.. and if your worried about being in a public place that's going to get shot up. Then stay home and keep playing your video games and watching the new publications for bad media... One Day you might get it..

Americans are peasants (per the dictionary definition). Slaves in their own country.

They're given a Constitutional Right to own guns - as long as they protect The People from tyranny.

And what do they do when tyranny comes? Duck and cover. Cowards of the worst variety.

They don't deserve to own guns anymore. They lost that right the second tyranny arose, and they did NOTHING.

1% of their country controls 99.998% of their wealth. 1 in 10 of their citizens is in prison. Fuck 'em. They're not worth saving.

Too many people are responsible with their weapons to ban them. We don't ban cars, despite the number of injuries and fatalities directly caused by them and their potential for abuse, because they have value. Guns have value and the regulations in place at federal and state levels (like those for cars) are society's response to the danger in an attempt to balance freedoms and dangers. Your suggestion to ban everything but hunting rifles and handguns- two categories of weapons that could be every bit as dangerous in the wrong hands as an "assult" rifle- suggests you don't know enough about firearms to make any kind of policy decision or even a policy suggestion.

If you can't hit with burst, you can't hit with single-fire. Why? The first round in a burst IS single fire you fucking numbnuts motherfucker. Yes, auto is for suppression. Yes, burst is less accurate than single fire.

No, burst is not suppressive. Three round burst was created because if you fire in center mass you're NEARLY GUARANTEED TO HIT(yooooou worthless fucking marksman trash you)2+ times, flatly increasing lethality.

A combination of factors, all of which are batshit insane but which can be understood.

You'll find that enthusiasts for weapons of this nature (semi-automatic, fairly high magazine capacity) are overwhelmingly politically conservative. This might seem obvious, but their thinking comes loaded with lots of assumptions. First, they think that their rights as American citizens begin and end with the list compiled by the founding fathers in the Constitution over 200 years ago. There is a tendency to believe that "might makes right" so that when the First and Second Amendments come into conflict, they will always defend the Second at the expense of the First. Their understanding of the Constitution as a document to be taken literally is not unlike their interpretations of the Bible. There is no room for meaning to evolve as circumstances in society change.

There is quite a bit of alignment, often subconsciously, with the rebellion against what was considered to be an overreaching Federal government in the Civil War. A rebellion waged, it needs to be noted, in defense of an economic system almost entirely based on agrarian chattel slavery. There is a continuing sense of outrage about their defeat at the hands of this government and destruction of an entire way of life.

To this day, the Feds are viewed with suspicion and the most likely source of an imposition of tyrannical rule that would try to destroy what remains of this culture altogether. "Assault weapons" are a sort of psychological comfort mechanism. They are viewed as an insurance against Federal tyranny, alongside frequent intimations that most military service members would be likely to side with them in the event of another armed rebellion (a dubious proposition, but not entirely unlikely).

Sauce: living among these nutters for 30 years.

aside from the fact that one of the primary purposes of the 2nd amendment is to be able to resist foreign or domestic government tyranny which would entail at the very least a similar rifle to what our infantry use, an AR-15 or any rifle like it is the best gun you could use for home defense unless you wanted to use a handgun for mobility reasons.

Last I checked the reason the japanese didnt try and invade the US is because and I quote "It is impossible to invade the mainland US because there will be a rifle behind every blade of grass." We are not worried of war because we are prepared. And the AR15 is not a "military grade assualt rifle" cause if it was it would have interchangable fire, and have the capability of being fully automatic.

It is illegal for American citizens to own a military-grade "assault" rifle. You are likely suggesting fully-automatic weapons which are not legal. Semi-automatic weapons, which fire a single cartridge only every time the trigger is pulled, is what is legal and what the civilian AR-15 is; however, the Orlando muslim terrorist did not use an AR-15.

The semi-automatic -- which has the exact same firing speed and mechanism as the civilian AR-15, and every other semi-automatic rifle -- was invented and sold in 1885 by Mannlicher. The same firepower over 130 years ago was available. Unfortunately, the emotion-driven uneducated who never let facts get in the way of opinion truly believe and will still argue that these are fully automatic machine guns.

The funny thing is, if you go with the historical hurr muh 3% the number of insurgents is hilariously larger.

The big problem however with a civil war, aside from civil war itself being ugly on a scale beyond war between nations as if that were possible, is that post globalization it wouldn't be 'our' war so to speak in much the same way that the Syrian Civil war is being fueled by many different extranational interests. You can bet your ass as border security crumbled our neighbors would be severely affected and not only that but the other major national players would begin influencing parties in favor of their interests. How much influence they could affect is something I'm very curious to know but never hope to learn. America is for Americans after all.

There isn't. I own two AR-15's, and they are both, by definition, assault rifles. I hate it when gun owners try to claim otherwise. Yes, they are semi-automatic. Full auto isn't required for it to be an assault rifle. The traits are:

Pistol grip
Rapid fire
Removable magazine
High capacity magazines

They are based on the StG44 "Sturmgewehr 44," a late WWII German rifle that is father of all assault rifles. Sturmgewehr or Storm Rifle, was translated into English as "Assault Rifle." It had all of the traits listed above. It was also selective fire. All assault rifles since are similar in appearance and functionality.

I am pro 2nd amendment and the AR-15 is protected unambiguously according to the latest SCOTUS ruling in DC v Heller but that being said, an AR-15 vs. any other semi-automatic rifle wouldn't make much of a difference in the big picture if things were ever to come to an actual fight between citizenry and some military force.

I personally want an AR-15 because it is the best home defense gun I can think of.

Nearly five times as many murders are committed with knives than so-called “assault rifles,” according to the FBI.
The new crime statistics released by the agency reveal that out of 11,961 murders performed within the U.S. in 2014, 660 were committed unarmed, 1,567 were committed with knives and only 248 murders were known to have been committed using rifles of any type, including single-shot long arms and “assault rifles” routinely demonized by gun control groups.
Granted, the FBI did list 2,052 murders under “unknown firearm type,” but given the percentages of the known firearm categories, it is unlikely that more than four percent of the “unknown firearms” were in fact rifles, and less than that were semi-automatics.
In other words, despite the calls to ban “military-style assault rifles” by anti-gun groups, conservatively less – and likely much less – than four percent of murders were committed using AR-15s, AK-47s and other semi-automatic long arms.

If you happen to live in the US., then your Right to free speech doesn't apply to the internet. You should be imprisoned for some of the things that you've said.

The 4th Amendment cannot apply to online banking, so all of your accounts can be forfeit without due process.

Cruel and unusual punishment allowed for hanging, firing squads, etc. I doubt that you will enjoy your execution for violating the online offensive speech act.

Burst fire is a doctrinally driven evolution of FA rolled out in the hopes of reducing ammo expenditures while still being capable of delivering suppressing fire, at predicable intervals that force shorter bursts and encourage more frequent acquisition of targets or target positions.

this is the most ignorant shit i have ever read in my life waht the fuck? it happens everywhere, just not RIGHT HERE. Protip: google israel. Did you think it was a country always? It wasn't. Maybe, since it has the name of a state, you remember that whole "georgian occupation" about ten fucking minutes ago?

well there are good reasons to choose a pistol over a rifle, but if you have to shoot someone a rifle is going to be much more effective at stopping a threat.
