USA Today warned Americans on Wednesday of the possibility that a chainsaw bayonet could be strapped to an AR-15 rifle.

In a video posted to its Twitter page, the news publication attempted to explain the AR-15 rifle to its readership. The video detailed random components of an AR-15 like the trigger, buttstock, handguard, and sights but not other integral parts like the upper receiver, lower receiver, or grip.

It then showed a seemingly random collection of "possible modifications" to the AR-15, "some common, some rare." Examples included in the video were a 100-round magazine, shotgun attachment, and a novelty trigger crank. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, the publication warned of the existence of a chainsaw bayonet.

You can shoot at the bad guys and do yard work at the same time. What’s not to like?

The company just sent the first demonstrator model to Sen. Ron Paul for beta testing in the field.

Completely clueless but, like Hollywood, they know what’s best for the rest of us.

Lol.
Maybe they read ‘chainsaw’ and assumed it to be an actual chainsaw.

Mossberg makes a shotgun they call a ‘chainsaw’.
Designed to open doors . Has a serrated muzzle attachment. Use the blast to blow the hinges or lock.

Excellent! That’d REALLY raise their blood pressure.

One little quibble: you forgot the “BFYTW” on the bottom.

Do you mean Rand Paul? Ron Paul is his father, and he was never a senator.
