“What Percentage Of Murders Are Committed With An AR-15?”

[jbander]

Yet we have had millions of GI go into fire fights with that "Glorified 22LR". Except it's not a 22LR. It's a 223/556 high velocity rifle cartridge originally designed to kill or wound Human Beings long before it was introduced in a sporting rifle. Let' s look at the specs on the two.

22 long rifle
.22 caliber
40 grain
1200 fps
131 ft lbs
Used by many boyscouts as their first gun.

AR15
Comes in two varieties but we will lump them together for time restraints
.223/.556 Caliber
55 grain
3240 fps
1282 ft lbs
Used primarily by Military

Wow, that's some Glorification you have there, Grandma.

AR15

When did the military start using the AR-15?

Lots more bullets can be carried and it is a real hamburger maker. They are light and full of little tricks that makes hamburger without breaking geneva. That's both the gun and ammunition.

FYI the military NEVER issued an Ar 15 to any soldier

Idiot

From the NRA's American rifleman "The U.S. Air Force recommended after its 1960 test that the AR-15 rifle be adopted as the standard shoulder weapon in the Air Force."

Recommended


Does not mean it was ever issued.

The military did, however, use a modified version of the AR-15, called the M16.

you need to learn more about the subject, and stop trolling

Eugene Stoner leaves ArmaLite to serve as a consultant to Colt Firearms. At this point, ArmaLite was out of the AR-15 business – for the time being. The United States Air Force tests the AR 15 Rifle and purchases 8,500 rifles. You people never have a clue what your talking about

The Air Force standardizes the AR 15 and designates the rifle M-16. 85,000 rifles are purchased by the Air Force. Also this year, the US Army purchases 85,000 more M-16 rifles."

 

[jbander]

Again right out of the NRA magazine "
By far the largest possible user of the rifle is the U.S. Army. The Army initiated and supported the experiments leading to the AR-15 rifle and its cartridge, and on their completion tested them very extensively. The AR-15 thus has received much consideration.

"

You just have to stand back and howl at these gun Bubbas , these self proclaimed experts , really know very little about their subject.

 

[jbander]

Love it, do you want to know why gun bubbas will always lose , because they only deal in lies , distortions or half truth, here's his normal semiAutomatic weapons
View attachment 190126

Yes....dumb ass....that rifle is the same rifle as the other, over 8 million other AR-15 rifles that were not used to shoot anyone that day, and it is no different from the over 16 million semi automatic rifles in private hands of all types...

Again....it would be a big help if you did some basic research....

Well thank you, that' the point that all ar15 have to go.

They are protected by the 2nd Amendment...but please...tell everyone you want to ban all rifles.....that would be helpful...

Why the hell would I do that, when I don't support banning all guns but I will understand if this country does because the endless lying , distortions and half truths being all you can ever get from you gun bubbas , people will turn on guns and the 2nd because they just want to turn on you and your bullshit. Gun bubbas are by far the biggest threat to the second.

if they ever decide to ban guns, it will be because of 'the endless lying , distortions and half truths we get from you '

OK I'll bite maybe you could list a few.

Yea

only twice as much as you do

 

[francoHFW]

There are already 8 million AR-15s out there, and wanna be super soldier psychos love buying and using them in mass murders, so let's stop selling them and let's have really Universal background checks lyke everyone but real gun nuts want to have. Gun corporations run the NRA and the GOP. Great job...

 

[jbander]

The AR-15 from the start was designed as a military weapon, and the gumdrops here want you to think that it isn't , they want to bullshit their way through this , with all their mumbo jumbo about this gun. The gun industry got together when the heat was on and decided to try to stop calling these assault weapons assault weapons and maybe the heat would go away, they tried to bullshit their way through this and all gun bubbas do nothing but.

The question is not "What percentage of murders are committed with an AR-15?" ...

...rather...

The question is "What percentage of mass shootings are committed with an AR-15?"

Next slide, please.

Good question

how many

 

[Siete]

just a guess, but I'd say since the popularity of the AK more shootings have taken place with it than the AR.

 

[OKTexas]

Has jbander realized yet that no one from the left is coming to the defense of his absurd arguments?

No the question is why would jbander care. I personally like to operate this way. Eat you up and spit you out.

Here's your sign.

I took this photo at a local business today, what do ya think of them apples?

22.7% of the shooters had one at the time of HIS murder.



Why?

 

[OKTexas]

If I was to pick out the person here who dumps the most nonsense it would be you, so why do you think I would pick you to engage in a conversation about guns.

Well, then.

Give us all one good reason why we shouldn't collectively put you on "ignore" and go on about our business? You don't add ANYTHING to the discussion and you suck at arguing. What's the point? All you do is cry like a baby and demand that we agree with you.

Yup Your gone , it's been a slice. Every person should dump anyone like this guy who promotes having everyone put someone on the Ignore list,

Only pussies use ignore.

Hey, where's Synthaholic go? Taking her antidepressants?

You looking to buy one?

Gun corporations run the NRA and the GOP. Great job...

And the worst mass school shooting was done with 2 pistols, Virginia Tech, and 32 people were murdered......making your point about banning AR-15s stupid.

Universal background checks are also stupid...

Mass public shooters can pass current federal background checks, dumb ass, which means, dumb ass....that they can pass a universal background check....making your point really stupid....

criminals use straw buyers to get their guns.....straw buyers can pass current federally mandated background checks which means they can also pass any universal background check........

The only reason the anti gun movement wants universal background checks is so they can demand universal gun registration.....their golden ticket to banning and confiscating guns when they finally get the power...

The AR-15 was never used by the military, and it isn't a weapon of war.....yet you keep lying about that, giving us no reason to trust you in anything else you say....

And we know that.....less than 20%.....since this list only lists "rifles" not specific rifle types.....

Weapons used in mass shootings in the U.S. 1982-2017 | Statistic

151 pistols, shot guns and revolvers

43 rifles

I I am worried about the psychos who love buying AR-15s. Nobody wants to ban all all guns, super duper...

I do not recall anyone in the gun industry ever calling them "assault weapons". That terms was used by the anti-gun folk.
