AR-15 is a gas powered semiautomatic rifle

And it burns fossil fuels! We need to ban these things and require solar powered rifles!

My fully-automatic Saturday Night Special Glock revolver assault-rifle fires 10,000 rounds a minute out its spray nozzle and it comes with million round clips that all on their own have been known to mow down entire schoolyards of children.

It’s black and ugly and scary and pregnant women have been known to miscarry at the mere mention of it!

(Now watch some idiot in the media quote me as if this thing really exists.)

ULTIMATE AR-15 MELTDOWN!

That arrogant pos occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave lied to Grayson and that idiot bought his lie hook line and sinker

Random stuff.
And you won’t see the letters `AR-15’ or the Colt rampant pony on anything but a Colt.
So arguably the only AR-15 is the Colt. The rest are M-4orgeries, though practically identical in all other respects.

“Military Spec.”: means standards (particularly metal alloys) that came out starting about the time the first `57 Chevy rolled off the assembly line.
And anyone familiar with the Army knows how receptive they are to change: getting Stoner’s new rifle in the hands of the troops was like pulling teeth.
And once the troops did get them they looked like something from a Buck Rogers movie and were supplied with ammo that made their bolt carriers cycle too fast and they didn’t have cleaning kits. The kits were all made for .30 caliber. The direct gas impingement system gets dirty fast.
A lot of troops actually wrote home from their tropical vacations and asked Mom to send them their Outers .22 cleaning kits.
So the M-16 got off to a rocky start.

But like it or not Babs, Di, Chuck, Hills, it is now America’s rifle, just as the Mauser action Springfield was after WWI and the semi-auto after WWII.

The deep, dark secret of the Democrats and why Uniparty hates the latest modern sporting rifle.

It’s because it’s black ....

No way can an AR-15 fire 700 rds per min

Nor can a full auto m-16 fire 700 rds per min

Ironically, the cyclic rate of fire of the m-16 on full auto is considered to bd too fast to optimally effective

Faster is not always better

” Rep. Alan Grayson: An AR-15 Rifle Can Fire ‘700 Rounds In A Minute’”

Well, that’s not nearly as dangerous as its grenade launchers.

My M16A1 runs at about 850 RPM.The best I can do on full auto with 30 round mags is about 180 rounds per minute,assuming I’m at least trying to aim the weapon and do bursts of 3-5 rounds each.

Dumb A. Grayson is not the only one to make stupid statements. Comments by B. Obama should offend all normal Americans.
