If you havent been keeping up with the gun control debate following the Orlando terrorist attack, many democratic senators are conducting a filibuster of sorts to demand banning certain types of weapons. Illinois senator, Dick Durbin, apparently couldnt resist speaking on the topic either.
Ironically, every word that left Dick Durbins mouth made him look like a complete jackass. He claimed that no self-respecting sportsman in his home state of Illinois would ever use an AR-47 to hunt deer.
Senator Durbin is actually correct for two major reasons.
First of all, theres no such thing as an AR-47. Theres an AR-15. Theres an AK-47. But nope, no AR-47s. So clearly nobody could ever use a rifle to hunt deer that doesnt even exist. Sorry Dick.

What Dick knows about hunting can be summed up thusly: Jack ****.
You cannot reason with a demoncrat/Liberal/Progressive. They are incapable of having original thoughts. Dogma is their philosophy, so long as that dogma conforms to their Fascist dreams.
Actually, I did some reading up on the AK-49.
That model is going to have a time travel generator located in the forestock.
It’s only a short jump of a minute or so and backwards jumps only. It’s so if you miss a shot, you can jump back and try again, and again, and again, until you hit that shot.
Which, of course, is a massive increase in accuracy since every shot’s a hit... eventually.
Dick Durban talking about self respect. That’s rich.
No self respecting conservative ever shot up a night club of sitting ducks either
Of course, I meant the AR-49.
The AK-49 is a whole different beast... what with it being made from that new semi-biologic smart material.
(These are scheduled for delivery to the Sinaloa Cartel by agents of the DOJ next month.)
Dick Turban does’nt even know there is no AR 47. But here is what Dick needs to know and then he can shut up. I don’t give a crap about killing a DEER with my simi autos. I have them to kill BAD GUYS!!! I have that right and that duty to protect my family and myself. To hell with the constitutional “DEER” requirement Dick!! Get a life.Ban Wahhabis in this country, NOT GUNS!!
Illinois is mostly shotgun only hunting when deer hunting.

Rifle season, shot gun season and bow season.
To be fair to Dicky Durbin there IS an LAR-47 that Rock River Arms sells and I think some variant hybrid called the AR-47 from Phoenix Arms which someone just adapted an AR-15 set to accept the 7.62 round.
But I have an AK-GAT9mm the will shoot 400 dumdum clips per second with high capacity glocks installed. Don’t forget the front handle. Always more deadly with the front handle.
No wonder you turned out all gun-huggy. :)
Show the table after Michael Moore visits a buffet and buffets are over.
OMG OMG we have to ban those WORDS, much less the gun. OMG OMG!
I know I sure as hell wouldn’t use one then things are dangerous I can fire all by themselves
Yes, it is. In the hands of someone that knows how to use it, .223 (in any type of gun, from the ranch rifle to a Model 700 to an AR-15 variant) is a good round. But for medium to large game, there are better choices.
Being ignorant, Durban doesn't understand that the AR-15 appeals to many for the same reason it appeals to the military:
Durban's (and anyone else's) rationalizations are nothing more than similar "value judgements".
A high-capacity magazine in any firearm has never made any difference in how many people a mass murderer can kill or injure, because the crimes have always been committed in an area where the victims could not easily flee and were disarmed so they couldn't fight back.
Southern Michigan is shotgun only (plus black powder) too but there were recent laws passed that allowed the shooting of handgun caliber ammunition in rifles that accommodate them. I have no idea what impact that is on our hunting population...........
With that being said, the .223 cartridge is useless when hunting deer or any larger animal and is more suitable for varmints......Everyone I know who ventures up north to hunt with rifles use higher caliber rifles...........
