For at least an hour after firing the gun just a few times, I was anxious and irritable.

From Wiki:
Gersh Kuntzman The dork who thinks a 5.56 round gave him PTSD.....a 5.56mm round kicks no more than a .22lr that can barely kill a squirrel what a baby
LOL!

First big bore rifle I ever fired was a 45-70 Trapdoor Springfield made in the 1870s. Yeah, it kicked all right, but I did fire 5 rounds through it. I was 14.

He is now a bona fide gun expert in the world in which he lives.Until one of his friends decides to try the horror for himself because he wants to feel the brass casing generated wind in his hair!

Never mind that the cultist of Islam who did the deed should never have been allowed to settle in among the general public of this country in the first place, and on top of that, he had a number of incidences of higher scrutiny from the feds but guilt was dismissed because of his protected status as a cultist of Islam. Can I run on some more?
These cultists must go.

“The recoil bruised my shoulder...”
I simply don’t believe that.

*** Or a Mosin Nagant. My guess is he doesnt have the upper body strength to lift one of those. ***
I’m a girl, and love mosin-nagants. This guy has to be the world’s biggest liar or the world’s biggest P*$$y, if he cowers from shooting an ar-15.

I forgot to add that I fired a friend’s AR 15 and the recoil wasn’t much more than that of my .22 mag rifle.

The brass shell casings disoriented me as they flew past my face. Well, this leftist must also be a southpaw. But "disoriented me?" OH PLEASE!!!
I used to have an original version of Colt's commercial CAR-15, pre-A1, so it didn't have the little case deflector "nub." I wear glasses, so it was a bit annoying when the ejected shells would hit the frame of my glasses, but while a bit distracting, certainly NOT disorienting!
All it took was move to an A2 and the problem magically disappeared!

If the sound was too loud, why didn't he use a sound suppressor ?

“What is it with the NY Daily News?”
Suitable for lining dog kennels, nothing more.
He also said he never sells a gun to someone who looks a little bit funny,I'd love to see this false-flag anti-gunner get sued into bankruptcy if he refused to sell to a Black guy in baggy pants because he looked "a little bit funny." Like a gang-banger?

Women love the AR-15 because it is so manageable.
This wuss .... probably has pencil-thin arms.
