Or, at least we are told. Unlike the others I pointed out, the trench gun, the Garand, the 1911's, etc.

I was being facetious.

I personally like the AR platform, I got a 2 stamper in my get home kit. The platform does catch a ration of shit from the ignorant and misinformed, and from AK Jesus, but Herrera is just a contrarian.

Schrödinger's AR. Simultaneously a deadly weapon of war that has no business being in civilians hands, and yet, totally useless against a military.
