I know a lot about them because I spent 35 years in the Marine Corps,
we were expected to know our firearms inside and out, so I have a vast knowledge.
Just because I don't have or want to own firearms, doesn't mean that I'm ignorant of firearms.
BTW, the AR in AR-15 stands for Armalite Rifle, for the company that first introduced it back in the 50's.
