First of all, don't flame me. I am only asking for information. I am fully in favor of 2A and believe a well armed citizenry is extremely important to fend off our government out of control. I think we all saw enough during COVID to give us the creeps on government power.

That said, I don't know anything about guns so don't understand the nature of an AK-15. I tried searching online for info and it's all written by leftists who say it was developed for the Nazis, used by Russians in war, blah blah.

What is the deal with Ak-15s? Are they used for hunting? Why are they referred to as "assault weapons"?

Haha, yeah, I told you I didn’t know anything about guns! I actually did search for AR-15s. That’s where I saw all the info about them being developed for use in WW2, etc.

The headline should have read, “ I the irrelevant, retiring, crybaby RINO, am ready for a ban on assault rifles now!” Adam wouldn’t be able to identify a real assault rifle if his life depended on it. Hint, it has the ability to fire full auto.

Why are they referred to as "assault weapons"?

Because they look very similar to standard issue select fire (semi automatic/three round burst/full automatic may be chosen) military weapons. They lack the burst and full auto features. One trigger pull, one shot.

I find it funny when the Libs use the words “Assault Weapon” and “weapons of war”

Really What about all the big badguns left in Afghanistan, and all the military hardware and bigboy weapons left over there that could kill alot more that 20 people like in Texas. Opps were not supposed to say anything about that.

Any firearm becomes a weapon of war…when you are at war.

Look at the Russian soldiers using 100 year old bolt action rifles.

I thought we had one during the Clinton regime that proved to be a failure?

You seem fixated on guns left in Afghanistan. They could all shoot each other into extinction. I doubt very many people would care.
