Probably meant “AR15’s are NOT meant for military use”. I have no idea if that is accurate, but it sounds right. I would imagine that all weapons of that style (.223 caliber, larger magazines, etc.) have the fully automatic switch on them in the military??

Of course - wasn’t that the excuse for banning sawed-off shotguns - that they were NOT useful for military use - and therefore were not protected under the 2nd Amendment?

Although I know that shotguns were/are often carried by our military - and I imagine some of them were probably shortened by our guys for fighting in trenches, tunnels, etc.

So - the 2nd only protects weapons useful in the military, and this hick wants to get our military weapons?

I like that one saying about “You can have my gun when you pry it from my cold dead hands. Just be careful - the barrel will be REALLY hot!”

When I was a Kid, you could buy a WWII Surplus German Anti Tank Rifle from an Ad in the back of a Magazine for $179.00.

You could also buy extra Ammunition. It was a bit steep, but I sure wish my Dad would have given me the money for it.

Then again, that was back in the day when my older Brother took his .22 Rifle to School when the Gun Club had Target Practice at the School’s Basement Gun Range.
