If this guy ,whoever he is, would check regulations, he would find his most feared "assault rifles" were indeed not allowed for most hunting. AR15 are used for target shooting in some matches. Aks are not too much used because they lack accuracy. Most of the "assault rifle" paranoia is from misinformation and a total lack of knowledge!

Unfortunately he is, or was, highly regarded in the big game hunting community.

I predict this blog posting will not enhance his reputation...

. The AR15 (M-16 etc.) round - 5.56 mm or .223 - was originally invented for varmint hunting. People were sizing large cases down to take a long .22 slug. It didn’t take long for Stoner to pick up on the idea.

I think in this case it is due to the author's vested interest in pimping "Remington's brand new .17 cal Spitfire bullet.
