BoR's favorite lines call ARs and AKs "heavy weapons."

My favorite quote, after BoR called an AK a "heavy weapon."

Dobbs: "An AK is a seven-six-two round. That is the cartridge it fires. It is not a heavy weapon by any reasonable definition."

...up until the point he described a “.30 caliber machinegun” as a heavy weapon.

AK-47 rounds (7.62x39mm) ARE .30 caliber rounds. My M1 Garand(in 7.62x51mm (.308 NATO)) is a “.30 caliber” weapon...albeit sporterized a bit.

So is it the caliber, or the automatic-fire feature that makes it a “heavy weapon”?

The SAW is a 5.56x45mm (.223) caliber weapon with automatic- fire capability - it that also a “heavy weapon”?

C’mon, Lou, get the facts...
