I own two shotguns and 3 rifles, all for the purpose of hunting.
I'm asking why anyone sees the rationale of owning an AR-15?
Any comments…..

What's your rationale for hunting? Better yet, what's your rationale for having a shotgun and a rifle for hunting? Why not just one or the other?

Would you find me owning an AR-10 acceptable?
Well it's only 2/3rds as deadly as an AR 15 so it might be okay!
Are the bullets slower, because it's an AR-10?


Rofl, well it is 5 digits less.

In fairness drive by troller probably thinks AR-10 is a smaller Assault Rifle than an AR-15 because 10 < 15

For an honest answer, my eyes are not as good as they were 10 years ago. I have problems shooting my handguns as accurately as I once did. I find a AR pistol with a red dot to be the answer for my home defense. I use my others for hogs and just general fun. The AR was the first platform that my son shot when he was 4. They are incredibly versatile platforms and none of mine have ever snuck out in the middle of the night and hurt someone.

As someone taking firearms classes, my reason is I want one because I would do anything to protect my boy. But I don't even know what kind of gun it is

Crime is really increasing here

If I choose to buy one, I don't have to justify it.
I will if you are nice.
But I will kill anyone attempting to attack B-man

Because my wife's odds of knocking down an intruder goes up significantly compared to a handgun.

AR-15s looks scary but shoot the same ammo as normal hunting rifles. The scary look doesn't make the bullets any bigger or travel any faster.

In general terms and themes
Good for home defense
Good for most large game ( caliber nerds will flame me)
Easy to outfit with optics for different purposes
In the gravest extreme it is good for taking on multiple adversaries
Ammo is usually cheap so practicing can be done more often.

Not sure on that, but it can only take 10 round clips so it's less deadly.

Also, as someone who is eligible for militia service in the worst of worst situations, I feel it is my responsibility to be adequately equipped to do so.
This is literally what the 2A says. Every able bodied man may be called upon to defend the community. From US Code Section 246 - Militia: composition and classes

Quote:

(a)
The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.
(b)The classes of the militia are
(1)
the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and
(2)
the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.
Can't be anymore clear. Because every able bodied male may be called upon to defend the nation the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
A fearful society is a compliant society. That's why Democrats and criminals prefer their victims to be unarmed. Gun Control is not about guns, it's about control.

Imagine a violent criminal like George Floyd and a team of other violent robbers invading your home…like he and his gang did to that innocent woman years ago. I would much rather have an AR-15 in this instance than a compact Glock or shotgun.

I would buy an M16 tomorrow if Ronald Reagan hadn't caved to democrats in 1986. But he did, and now they are essentially unattainable @ $30k minimum.

So I got an AR.

Yes. Because of my deformed hands and inability to rotate my forearms it is the first rifle I can safely hold (with attachments) and shoot.

…..so thanks for hating on the handicapped.

Btw I have had my AR-15 under camera for 2 years and it has never once tried to go out joy riding and shoot folks.

What is the reason you need a Facebook or Instagram page?

Because you like it. It doesn't matter that it's rotting your brain using it. You enjoy it, and it's your constitutional right to speak freely.
