Even state wildlife agencies don't usually allow the taking of immature offspring of a species.

But we're not talking about people who abide by the rules, are we?

Rittenhouse's lawyers are arguing he was engaging in "legal hunting" on the streets of Kenosha.

Little Kyley should be in that ad... with his blue gloves.

Apparently deer are also well armed and dangerous, requiring overwhelming firepower and armour to survive. Bambi is no pushover after all, those eyes can kill!

over the last century and a half. Depends on the armor, actually. A good old fashioned .30-40 Govt, (AKA Krag,) been around since early 1890's, will go through and through most police vests. Gotta get to level IV to beat that old bullet. .30-30, the old lever cartridge, from 1895, will do pretty much the same. TONS of deer have fallen to it.

Pretty radical technology there, we'd better confiscate all of them and outlaw that caliber before too many of them are made or sold!

Thank "Dougout Doug" for having the Govt make all those deadly ww2 semi-auto assault rifles in .30-06. We could have had a glut of .276 Pederson except for him. No worries about the "06.

only a hardcore criminal would want that.

The ad photo is the split-second before the fall seen in that famous decades old photo.

As noted by others, in blood sports, human blood is most valued.

AR-15 style rifle... the majority/plurality preferred weapon of choice for killing unarmed schoolchildren.

It's what helps make us a shit-hole country.

to come here...

Let's be real

a Modern Sporting Rifle and then with a pistol and finally a shotgun against a timer? Or is it training for a mass shooting in close quarters? Hard to tell which . . .

Oh, I get it! Like the term Modern Sporting Rifle it was invented by the NSSF to justify the term Modern Sporting Rifle! See, there is a sport for that military wannabe gun.

3-gun aside…is there any shooting sport that isn't a "fantasy game about killing"?

Bullseye rifle shooting is about putting a bullet between a person's eyes – doubly so for Olympic/ISSF 3-position, it's all about how well you can kill from various stances. Why does any reasonable person need to know that?

And the Handgun World Shoot…really, tell me that's not about imagining putting your entire mag into an innocent person's X-ring. They even use big, properly lethal handguns - this guy is an AUSTRALIAN with an M1911!


I actually support about 90% of gun control, but sometimes, yeesh. Is my predilection for powerful, accurate rifles – or my love of archery, an equally vicious hobby – a symptom of a desire to go all Mandalay Bay?

How many have actually committed a mass shooting? I'm sure there's stats out there somewhere.

Importantly, PLCCA provides six exceptions to its general industry immunity, authorizing the following types of lawsuits to proceed even if an intervening act occurred involving the criminal or unlawful misuse of the firearm industry member’s product:
1 An action brought against someone convicted of “knowingly transfer[ing] a firearm, knowing that such firearm will be used to commit a crime of violence” by someone directly harmed by such unlawful conduct;
2 An action brought against a seller (or importer) for negligent entrustment or negligence per se;
3 An action in which a manufacturer or seller of a qualified product knowingly violated a State or Federal statute applicable to the sale or marketing of the product, if the violation was a proximate cause of the harm for which relief is sought. (Note that “State” laws are defined for these purposes to also include the laws of any U.S. territory as well as the laws of local political subdivisions, such as cities and counties);
4 An action for breach of contract or warranty in connection with the purchase of the product;
5 An action for death, physical injuries, or property damage resulting directly from a defect in design or manufacture of the product, when used as intended or in a reasonably foreseeable manner, except that where the discharge of the product was caused by a volitional act that constituted a criminal offense, then such act shall be considered the sole proximate cause of any resulting death, personal injuries or property damage; or
6 An action commenced by the Attorney General to enforce the Gun Control Act or the National Firearms Act.

Just like all other semiautomatic rifles it shoots 1 round every time you pull the trigger. Same as semiautomatic handguns. And shotguns. And revolvers. No real mystery to it.

None of those other guns had a special name made up just for them. They aren't called 'Modern Sporting Pistols' or 'Modern Sporting shotguns'. Only the AR-15. The NSSF said they invented the term just for that wanna be military weapon.

So I ask you specifically, what sport is it designed for and what sport is the guy in the OP's ad practicing for?

Can’t speak for him otherwise.

How about answering the basic question: "What sport is it designed for?"None of those other guns had a special name made up just for them. They aren't called 'Modern Sporting Pistols' or 'Modern Sporting shotguns'. Only the AR-15. The NSSF said they invented the term just for that wanna be military weapon.

I'm asking you to stay on topic and give some sort of answer to that question. Realize that it was you who joined the thread ignoring the point of the OP. You volunteered to take part, so take part.

The AR15 predates the 3gun by about a decade and a half. Seems the 'sport' was designed to justify the weapon, not the other way 'round.

And then used in competitions. level actions, pump actions, revolvers, bolt actions, magazines, automatic fire, etc.

I can't imagine anyone creating a truly novel design for a sport that doesn't yet exist.

...when it said sporting weapons were good, others are baaaaaaad.

It's not for just one gun model.



For example (from the BATFE):

There is no Federal registration requirement for most conventional sporting firearms. Only those firearms subject to the National Firearms Act (NFA) (e.g., machineguns, short-barrel firearms, silencers, destructive devices, any other weapons) must be registered with ATF.

chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.atf.gov/resource-center/docs/0813-firearms-top-12-qaspdf/download#:~:text=There%20is%20no%20Federal%20registration,must%20be%20registered%20with%20ATF.

counter the poor public perception of the military look alike weapon. They basically said so.

Yes, the ATF cited 'sporting firearms' to differentiate NFA weapons from weapons requiring registration but in that context it's a generic classification not a specific name for a specific weapon.

Besides, 3 Gun is a fantasy game about killing people, not a "sport".

Hence describing the AR15 as a sporting rifle places it on the good list.

3-gun is just a type of target shooting. No more, no less.

But you're free to speculate about competitors' fantasies, as you wish.

"What sport is the AR-15 designed for?"

3Gun is 'just a type of target shooting' is like the AR being just another sporting rifle (that is based in a military RFQ, designed to look exactly like current military rifles, marketed using military themed ads and marketed to young and not so young men not sure of their masculinity).

That's not speculation. It's observation.

Okay, I'm done.

3-gun, hunting, target shooting all are great!

The capacity to deter (permanently if necessary) any asshole threatening my life, liberty, or property is just a bonus, as is triggering the histrionics of people who don't like the idea of me owning one. Just waiting until the 1968 and 1934 gun-control acts are overturned and nationwide Constitutional carry is the unalterable law of the land to really celebrate. YMMV.

Coworker of mine from years ago, was an Army Infantry Lt. in Viet Nam. We were talking about firearms, specifically the M-16, and he remarked how he wished that he could have had an executive key to the soldiers weapons. Most of his guys were only proficient with semiautomatic fire. A very few with fully automatic fire.

I've watched people who were very skilled with a firearm shoot fully automatic and semiautomatic. No matter how damned good you are, a fully automatic firearm isn't very precise.

A magazine fed semiautomatic rifle is ideal for killing lots of people at close range.
