A look at some core facts and truth regarding the nation’s most popular rifle.
The AR-15 is the most popular rifle in America today. Estimates put the total of privately owned modern sporting rifles upwards of 20 million, which would clearly meet the “common use” standard the Supreme Court says qualifies weapons for protection under the Second Amendment. Yet because mass murderers like the “transgender” biological woman in Nashville sometimes choose this weapon for the commission of heinous evil, leftists relish in attributing that evil to the tool rather than the perpetrator.
So let’s focus for just a moment on the facts and the truth about the AR-15.
It is a relatively small-caliber but high-velocity semiautomatic rifle, which means it fires only one round for every trigger pull. It was developed in the late 1950s by Armalite, hence the AR designation, which does not stand for “assault rifle.”
A true assault rifle is something like the M4A1 carbine, which is a military service rifle with select-fire — i.e., fully automatic — capability. While the AR-15 and the M4 look similar, the function is different.
Fully automatic machine guns have been effectively banned since 1986, so, despite their prevalence in Hollywood’s violence-glorifying entertainment, few are actually “on the streets,” and virtually none are used in the commission of crimes.

I follow Him, but I am not Him.
As for the brace, it is an SB Tactical Adjustable Brace.
“That is not an arm brace.
That’s an adjustable stock.”
NO. It’s definitely a brace—you can clearly see the strap tight around the butt of the brace, drawing the brace arms together so that it can be shouldered as if it is a stock. Braces can also be adjustable, resembling an adjustable stock, so the adjustability lever shouldn’t fool you.
Democrats demonize humans so why not inanimate objects?
Lead Star makes the Grunt .300 BO in 16 and 10.5 inch models, from what I’m seeing. Without getting the compass out, the barrel looks to exceed 2x the lower receiver length (7.63 inches). It does look like their adjustable pistol brace.
Good for you!
That gave me a chuckle. I built a 6.5 Grendel for entertainment and coyotes. 😀
and who is giving ukranian civilians fully automatic weapons to protect themselves with, while denying Americans the right to self protection with the best available guns to do so
It appears to be a Lead Star Arms Grunt III Pistol with 10.5" barrel.
Count the number of MLOC slots on the handguards. And it comes with the SB Tactical brace as standard. (Or did before the ATF's Pistol Brace ruling. You can't get 'em anymore.)
Looks like a 10.5" barrel in 5.56, but could be .300 BLK, but I would expect the 5.56 as a more common cartridge for S/He/It to buy.
everyone knows that how a gun looks determines how powerful it is- /s
As is any repeating firearm against unarmed people.
Something similar was used to end the ChristChurch murders in NZealand.
Why would anyone put an “arm brace” on an AR15?
So it resembles an adjustable stock, has an adjustability lever, it’s on an AR15, but just because it looks like and adjustable stock, it’s on an AR15 which most have an adjustable stock, it has and adjustablity lever...but it’s not and adjustable stock.
OK then.
I saw it reported as .300 BO, somewhere. Also heard they found 2 shotguns at her home. One was “sawed off,” which might mean a Shockwave.
Don’t forget that Hollyweird liberal who said that those 20 million AR-15s would be nice to have in the Ukraine.
No real difference between it and this one made in 1906. That is 116 years ago.

OK, I hadn't seen that.
