I think I started a thread by the exact same title over a year ago?
Since then I've come to not care a lick on what gun they use.

The shooters in America will need to make their own choice on how efficient they are with their personal experience.

If they want the largest body count they will be trained to know that the AR-15 guarantees the best results.

Ask any good guy who is intending on becoming a bad guy. This forum has a couple who can say for certain.

The AR-15 is just another rifle and I own one. It is a very accurate weapon.

No Blaster, it's not known as a very accurate weapon, and in any case that's not necessary for American shooters, or shooters of Americans, depending on your priorities?

You are ignorant concerning this weapon so pick a subject you are more knowlegeable about.

The AR-15 is the Devil's Spawn. They must all be melted down in a forge then beaten into AK-47s.

Wondering how many of those shootings and killings were done with an AR15. The media breathlessly screams for days on end when an AR15 was used in a shooting, but they don't say much or tell you when another weapon is used.
