Almost 18 MILLION AR-15 Rifles Now in American Hands

[007]

422 million guns out there in America, 17,740,000 of which are AR-15 variants.

Of course, you probably want to take this story with a grain of salt. The number is more than likely higher, considering how many are being built from parts and kits.

"AR-15s and other similar rifles may remain a key target of anti-gun politicians and activists, but new firearms industry production numbers indicate that they're still incredibly popular among American gun owners.

The National Shooting Sports Foundation — the trade association for the firearms industry — put out a numbers report on Wednesday indicating that 17.74 million modern sporting rifles are currently privately owned in the United States. Furthermore, the report found that a 54 percent majority of all rifles produced in 2017 were modern sporting rifles.

The NSSF's website explains that the term "modern sporting rifle" refers to "today's very popular semiautomatic rifle designs, including the AR-15 and its offspring" which have been legally sold for civilian use since the 1960s..."

New numbers show that Americans own almost 18 million AR-15s and other modern sporting rifles

It sure speaks well for a good design. I wonder why Colt is getting out of the AR-15 business.

They're caving to the leftist gun grabbing mafia that's suing them.

That's a lot of AR 15s, and a whole lotta freedom.

Interesting. How much freedom have the victims killed and their families enjoyed by those weapons being in the hands of people who should not have had them?

Shut up dumbass. You make believe fake cop. AR 15’s are used the least in shootings and killings dumbass. 90% of the shootings could have been avoided if people used their brains and did there jobs so go back to bed.

They didn't have the freedom to shoot first? The Second Amendment applies to everyone, doesn't it? Or am I just special?

The 5 & 6 year old kids in Conn. need to be able to shoot first? The teens at Parkland needed to be armed at school. The movie goers in Colorado needed to be armed so as to shoot first, the people in Las Vegas attending a concert needed to be armed?

It this what freedom means to you, having everyone being armed in every situation?

The 2nd A. according to Justice Scalia did not apply to everyone.

Not my problem. So some kids got killed in a school, oh Boo Hoo. WTF do you want me to do about it? Throw away my weapons and jeopardize my own life and the lives of my loved ones, because I own a rifle that offends or scares you?

Not going to happen. Nobody ever promised that life is going to be fair, so grow up.

You'd sing a different tune if you ever had a child murdered at school

Got to be more that that. Even if a jury said they were responsible, stopping after the fact would not help in a law suit.

I highly doubt they'd have ceased manufacturing their AR had they not been sued.

Are there other reasons? Maybe. Maybe they have a bunch of politically correct leftist stock holders... IDK.

Ban them

You hate them because they're black, don't you?

More reason we have to elect BETO!

[daveman]

See dickheads like Taz who lives in his parents basement of their townhouse, just cant imagine people who successfully can own not only their large houses but weapons to defend them from the likes of Trayvon Martin and other thugs. It isnt in their minute brain capacity to comprehend this...

Feel better now?

Almost 18 MILLION AR-15 rifles are still in American hands.

I feel great.

I don't care about that. Just curious though, why does everyone buy an AR-15? You expecting an invasion or something?

Ya might want to check out this thing called the 2nd amendment and its purpose.

I get that, but why buy shit you don't need? I'm sure these people already have hunting rifles and hand guns for self-defense. What's an AR-15 for?

It's funny how you think you can dictate what people need. Hint: You can't.

Because we can. Just like we can buy these goodies: Police-issue Level IIIA body armor, military-issue body armor, and chemical-biological masks. Fun stuff unless you're a felon, then you can't have them...

That's kinda nutty to spend thousands of dollars on shit you don't need and will never use. Y'all have too much money and too much empty space in your houses? Or is it a hillbilly thing or something?

Thousands of dollars?

I have about $50 in what I just pictured. But I get what you're saying: Why should anyone have a Maserati and a swimming pool, when a beat up old Chevy and a mudhole would do?

I'm saying with at least one weapon like an AR... There's 18 million peeps who have one and I'm guessing that they can't all afford a Maserati... It's like having enough TVs in your house but you buy another pretty expensive one to stick in your closet. I'm trying to figure out why, that's all.

Expensive? Not at all.

Mossberg 715 Tactical Semi Auto Rifle .22 LR 16.25" Barrel 25 Rounds Flat Top Upper Quad Rail Adjustable Stock Black Finish 37209

$275.

We get it; you don't know shit about firearms. And you think you should be able to decide who owns what.

Nobody has to justify anything to you. You're impotent in a way no little blue pill can cure.

That comment shows how stupid you are. People buy them because they use them for hunting, they’re fun to shoot and if you have a home invasion which happens all the time you have a great chance of survival. Libtards like you know nothing about guns and believe what the media and your retarded Democrats tell you. No clue. When you are someone in your family get home invaded and dead. Then let us know what you think.

So you're saying 18 million peeps are afraid in their own home enough to buy a powerful weapon because the weapons they already have don't make them feel secure enough, got it.

Your ignorant. You only took one part of what I said. I know that’s the libtard way. I said first people use them to hunt and also love to shoot them. Also, you say powerful, a shot gun is more powerful, 300 Win Mag, 6.5 Creedmoor, 7.62, 30-30 and the list goes on. Your just to stupid to admit it. It’s funny, Democrats repeat the same lie over and over to try and convince themselves and voters it’s true.

I'm guessing you oppose letting teachers who wish to protect children be armed at school.

Tell me: Just how "insecure and paranoid" are you?

You know goddamned well that you can't do anything about the number of guns in this country. So you feel that attacking the owners of the guns is going to accomplish something?

Dumbass, you're not only insecure and paranoid, but also delusional. Do you really think 18 million people are going to lay their AR-15 rifles at your feet, because you slighted them with a slur?

Delusional you are.

I don't care how many guns there are. If it helps the insecure hillbillies feel better, I'm all for it. Maybe you should go buy another one, one to protect your double-wide and and one to protect your still.

Do you live in L.A. and have you ever left the confines of the city?

Personally I live in a 5k square foot custom built home on the sixth fairway in a top five Master planned community in the nation in Texas and I own a shitload of firearms.
These being my two favorites....

Back in the 1970s a movie came out that showed how the slow infiltration of the US by people who wished to overthrow the government. Many liberal politicians just surrendered because since they are spineless it is easier to be a slave than it is to fight to stay free. Are you a slave Taz?

Moron. Parkland should have never happened. The FBI, the Police, the school, his mother and family and friend all knew he was nuts but did nothing. Get your facts straight. Conn. is a Democratic run state that has strict gun laws. How does that work. Look at Baltimore, Chicago and Camden (NJ) are shit holes all run by Democrats and have strict gun laws. Tell me is gun control working in those areas. Guns stop more killings then they cause. You libtards listen to the left wing media and the bullshit the Democrats tell you. If you believe them I have a bridge to cell for you.

It sure speaks well for a good design. I wonder why Colt is getting out of the AR-15 business.

Because they’re to many other well known AR 15 companies out there that have been selling them or derivatives for years. Colt would have to much catching up to do and the expense isn’t worth it.

Do I need to repeat myself?

So 18 million peeps buy one for pretty much no reason at all.

I saw it as an investment, when Obama became the greatest gun salesman of all time, my .223 went from $700 to over $1,000. Thanks Obama.
