Beretta’s New Super Rifle
yahoo.com ^ | 7/23/2014 | Douglas A. McIntyre

Posted on 07/24/2014 9:25:58 AM PDT by rktman

Gun company Beretta is tone deaf when it comes to calls for restrictions on powerful guns sold in the United States. It must be the chance to make money.

Beretta's website carried an announcement that the ARX100 is "shipping now." Beretta markets the rifle as "Italian Design -- American Built." Regardless of its origins, the gun is unusually powerful.

Well, yahoo is a good name for these idiots and I quote "Regardless of its origins, the gun is unusually powerful.". So I went to the Beretta web site to find out more. Apparently the writer must be confusing the standard .223 with the "unusually powerful" Super Ultra Max FA/-18 Hornet .223 bullets. Further, he states the price does NOT include bullets. This asshat isn't a low info type, he's a NO info type. Face/palm

The ignorance, and lack of initiative to perform any research, is appalling.

“Beretta is tone deaf when it comes to tyrants calls for a disarmed populace.”
There, fixed it.

Beretta is not "tone deaf". Beretta is listening to its customers, free American Citizens (who want to remain free) and providing us with the freedom defense weapons we desire. Beretta is also moving out of the Glorious Peoples' Demokkkratik Republik of Maryland, because the Commissars thereof ARE tone deaf when it comes to calls for the government to obey the US Constitution.

The author is an idiot ... or a mouthpiece for tyrants.

Yahoo needs to admit that the “calls for restrictions” are coming from the enemies of the Republic.

reasonably priced at $1,950,

Doesn't sound "reasonably priced" to me. But maybe it is -- I don't know.

Reporters have no clue that power for a rifle is mostly in the cartridge.

Does not include bullets, targets, wiping rags, storage crate, box lunch, thermos of hot coffee or free pass to Disney World.

I own about 10 Berettas. All the way from the little pocket 21 to an M9A1 9mm. Also have a CX-4 in 45 Auto....

I don’t consider ANY of them anywhere near as powerful as my Marlin 1895 GS 45-70. Methinks the writer has only ever shot a 22LR something.

I saw a description recently: “Looks like a Bushmaster ACR with a thyroid problem”.

Agreed, but it is the rifle that makes sure that the projectile makes its point! Still that is probably pointless to the semi-journalist and disruptive to his/her horror at this obvious ASSault weapon that is too powerful for anyone to posses outside the nanny government.
