The fundamental reason weakbrains buy them is because they look "scary"; i.e;, they look just like an M16.

Many handguns hold 15-18 rounds. Handgun are much more mobile and concealable. The rounds they hold can be excessively deadly.***\\\This Is My Opinion///***
I believe Liberals want to ban the AR-15 for two reasons...
1. The AR-15 is scary looking, it's that simple. The AR-15 is scary looking and it's easy to get people to think the AR-15 is bad because of the way it looks.
2. Here's the main reason why Liberals want to ban the AR-15. If Liberals are successful, they can then point to other guns as more powerful and say "We banned the AR-15 so we should ban all of these other weapons because they are more powerful and accurate."
That's why the big push to ban the AR-15.
And you are wrong. No other gun, freely available to civilians, is designed for or capable of killing as many people as possible in as short a time as possible as the AR-15.
Yes, in some situations, but not as consistently as the AR. The AR's accuracy doesn't degrade any where near as quickly as any other commonly available gun, including pistols, and concealment isn't always an issue.

Calibres in handguns with mags holding that many don't have the killing power of AR 15 calibres at the same ranges.Many handguns hold 15-18 rounds. Handgun are much more mobile and concealable. The rounds they hold can be excessively deadly.

You don't need it for personal protection, a regular gun will do. It's a gun designed for war, mass killing. One could easily shoot up a shopping mall with one, not good. We have too many idiots in this country wanting to walk into shopping malls, movie theaters, dance clubs, and schools wanting to kill as many people as they can in a short amount of time. The AR-15 allows them to do that.
I know all the gun nuts are going cry your violating my rights, I say go cry me a river pumpkin we need tougher gun control in this country to lower the murders. It violates the constitution you say? I don't care so be it.
I recently left truck driving for a 48k year job in the Social Services industry that was offered to me. Pretty good since most my jobs besides truck driving have been low paying $7-10hr and I got fired from 7 jobs. Dyslexic, ADHD, Mildly Autistic, Mild problems with seizures.
But anyway... back to my point. Most the people I have known in the healthcare/ Social Services industry including caregivers, doctors, nurses are very much pro gun control. Several doctors I have known have said they see it everyday in the ER, they need stronger gun control laws in this country.
Yeah but bear with me for a second...practically speaking...if you are in close quarters (office, school...mosque...etc.) and wish to effect max damage...a handgun is just as effective a tool as an AR.Many handguns hold 15-18 rounds.

I mean there is a reason police carry handguns and not rifles. You have a valid point Bulldog not arguing just saying.
In practical situations one can maximize the kill ratio with a handgun on concealment and a greater element of surprise alone.

Yep...
In 2018 there were a total of 5 attacks with rifles, either AK-47 civilian models or AR-15s, which are civilian rifles.........
Total killed.... 39 people.
numbers killed in the attacks...
4
11
4
3
17
Virginia Tech...2, 9mm pistols....32 killed.
Notice.....in only one of those attacks did the killer with the rifle kill more people than the guys with the pump action shotguns......
..the Russian shooter....Killed 20, injured 40 with a tube fed, 5 shot, pump action shotgun.
The Navy Yard shooter killed 12 with a pump action shotgun..
The Santa Fe shooter used a pump action shotgun and .38 revolver and killed 10
It's based on a military action designed to kill/wound as many people as quickly as possible and will take large capacity detachable magazines, so should likewise be severely restricted.Except for this little ranch rifle.

So it’s not the total number of people killed that you’re concerned about...it’s the total number killed in a single incident? Am I understanding you right?

How about you list the biggest mass shootings in the US over the past few years and the type of weapon used... I’m not talking about gang homicides in Chicago, I’m talking about mass shootings in public forums... you obviously need to do the research so have fun.im not twisting numbers to form a narrative just providing the most obvious reason for supporting regulation by most people. They hear AR15 and think of most the major mass shootings we’ve had in the USA. Schools, night clubs, churches... that’s why they support regulation. The OP left out the most obvious point.I wasn’t lying.. just stating an observationThat's a lie. Hand guns are used in most mass shootings.
.
Yeah, an observation that has been debunked in every thread on firearms. I'm sure I've seen you in at least a couple of them. So what would you call an observation that has been proven to be untrue?
.
And the only reason people think that way is due to propaganda pushed by the commiecrats and their lackey media. ARs have lower body counts than fist, feet and clubs, they just get all the publicity. Studies show the last AW ban had no measurable effect on crime. It's all planned to eventually disarm law abiding citizens. That's why I say, NO MORE COMPROMISE!!!!!!!!!!
.
Yeah sure depends on what the plan is, I’m always open to smart ideas to help solve problems and make our world safer.no banIm right about banning them? I never said I wanted to ban them. You have serious reading comprehension problems.
I jumped the gun...so what is your position? Ban or No ban?
Okay, no ban. But Regulation then.
On handguns, I don't have an answer or even a suggestion. But Handguns aren't inherent to the high body count potential. In fact, a Shiv Specialist can inflict the same body count as the handgun in the same time and space. So I don't have an opinion on how to address it. But the handgun has other uses other than going for a body count. And I think we have covered those to death already.
But the AR is another story. I think I have clearly expressed my thoughts on that already.
Yeah sure depends on what the plan is, I’m always open to smart ideas to help solve problems and make our world safer.no banIm right about banning them? I never said I wanted to ban them. You have serious reading comprehension problems.Oh, whoops...me and that stupid critical thinking shit. Sorry, you’re right, ban them and trample on our Constitution on FEELZ alone.
I jumped the gun...so what is your position? Ban or No ban?
Okay, no ban. But Regulation then.
It is the weapon of choice of mass murderers and has no purpose ion the hands of civilians
When it comes to mass killings? Absolutely.So it’s not the total number of people killed that you’re concerned about...it’s the total number killed in a single incident? Am I understanding you right?
When it comes to the US firearm homicide rate, handguns should be severely restricted in order to lower it. Especially as around half of all US firearm homicides are committed with handguns.
“Half”....huh?
“In 2010, 358 murders were reported involving a rifle while 6,009 were reported involving a handgun; another 1,939 were reported with an unspecified type of firearm. About 1.4 million people have died from firearms in the U.S. between 1968 and 2011.”
Nevertheless, he killed 11 people and wounded 31.***\\\This Is My Opinion///***

Not really. Check out what guns Charles Whitman used. There is also Lee Harvy Oswald. Even for his times the fun he used to kill a presidant was about as shitty as they come. It's not the weapons it's the people behind them.
The AR-15 wasn't as readily available for Whitman, and Lee Harvey Oswald shot one person.
Over a period of more than 1 1/2 hours with no real response to his attack.

No.....we have over 18 million AR-15 rifles in private hands...the majority reason people buy them is they are easy to use, clean and they can be customized for all body shapes.
