(6,324 posts)As for your facts, they are not facts at all but mostly made up nonsense.
Designed to kill more quickly and more accurately. Was it? Is that in the design specs?
In fact it wasnt. It was designed primarily to be lighter than the rifles its as engineered to replace. And accuracy in fact was secondary to weight in the design, it could have been more accurate. They went to a smaller bullet that isnt as powerful as what was in earlier designs to be lighter and they went to a thinner barrel that is less accurate to be lighter.
That statement is in fact crap. Its not based on the historical record of what it was designed for.
But its a common claim from the people who dont know what they are talking about.
Designed to accept accessories like a bump stock. Is also not true. Ill assume once again your just grossly ignorant on the subject and its not that you lie intentionally.
The commercially sold stock was invented about 50 years after the AR-15 came on the market. Unless there was a time machine it was not designed with bump stocks in mind. And they are not designed to accept them, rather it was that the commerciall makers designed bump stock was intended for use on the most common rifle.
And yes, you can in fact make a bump stock for pretty much any semi-automotiv rifle. Your notion that it cant be done on anything else is wrong just as the rest of your post. All a bump stock is, at its simplest, is a spring loaded stock. They can be made from PVC pipe and a spring from the hardware store. You can put them on an AR-15 or a Mini-14 or a 75 year old M-1 Carbine. But of course bump stocks also make the rifle very inaccurate as it fires, something you leave out.
As for what would I carry in combat? If the choice was only between a Glock and AR-15 that depends. Is this indoors or out? Lots of times when I was a Sheriffs Deputy if we were gonna go into a hostile situation where firearms were needed if it was indoors my AR stayed in the trunk and I indeed did have my Glock. Outdoors the AR. Its actually a far more complicated question than you present it as.
In conclusion- your entire post was a bunch of ill informed crap and drivel.
