No weapon has been more in the public eye in America of late than the AR-15, in large part because of its tragic role in some of this country’s deadliest shootings.

The AR-15 has the dubious distinction of being America’s most popular semi-automatic rifle. I’m more familiar with the gun than most people: I own one. And one thing I know for sure is that this weapon doesn’t belong in the hands of the average civilian.

I paid $120 for 200 today.

Apparently the idiot who wrote this add doesn’t know the difference between a MAGAZINE and a CLIP!

Colt wrote it back in the mid 1960s.

"My M1A1 uses a MAGAZINE, my M-1 GARAND uses a CLIP!"
