What about federal laws? getagrip_already Sep 2024 #81

I guess the judge(s) that continuously block bans on guns like these....................... Lovie777 Sep 2024 #2

Dunno about the judges. But the politicians feel the weight of NRA contributions in their wallets. 3Hotdogs Sep 2024 #22

They feel nothing! atreides1 Sep 2024 #36

Sure they do. Orrex Sep 2024 #46

An AR-15 is the enigmania Sep 2024 #3

You keep on hearing about it because it is true Abnredleg Sep 2024 #5

If you need a 30 round magazine to go deer hunting you shouldn't doc03 Sep 2024 #7

People don't use an AR-15 to hunt because of the number of rounds. It's because it's light and easy to modify. WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2024 #9

So you are in favor of a 10-round limit. nt doc03 Sep 2024 #12

That would be reasonable /NT Abnredleg Sep 2024 #15

For a removable magazine? Yep. Happy Hoosier Sep 2024 #26

Absolutely not. sir pball Sep 2024 #54

Can you pls explain "easy to modify"? OneGrassRoot Sep 2024 #20

Sure. The parts of an AR are very easy to swap out for different ones, so depending on your shooting style, your build, WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2024 #23

Got it! Thx very much. n/t OneGrassRoot Sep 2024 #24

I appreciate when someone puts forth facts sarisataka Sep 2024 #57

What is sportsman-like about killing a deer? Doodley Sep 2024 #45

I know!!!! What a laugh. If it is not to feed MotownPgh Sep 2024 #63

Toxic masculinity on full display (by the way, I'm a guy). First "sport" that has zero skill. But they love killing. Doodley Sep 2024 #70

Maybe satsifies some ancient caveman MotownPgh Sep 2024 #105

You can use 5 round magazines on a AR-15 style gun Kaleva Sep 2024 #83

I'm curious. What can you hunt with an AR-15 that won't be pulverized and useless unless your purpose is just to kill? Lonestarblue Sep 2024 #8

A deer, with one or two shots. WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2024 #11

I know people here in Texas who hunt deer every year during open season and freeze the meat. Lonestarblue Sep 2024 #13

"Plain old hunting rifles" can have much greater "firepower" than an AR. WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2024 #17

Maybe they should outlaw hunting with a rifle. Like it is in Delaware. Bullets travel too far for our small state. Walleye Sep 2024 #78

What cartridge do they use? Happy Hoosier Sep 2024 #27

They switching to the Creedmore? WalkerinSC Sep 2024 #53

It's a SIG designed cartridge.... Happy Hoosier Sep 2024 #60

I wouldn't want to be the guy hoping to stop a bear with a AR-15 WalkerinSC Sep 2024 #50

The power of the AR15 is not that great Abnredleg Sep 2024 #14

Tell that to the mother of the child to had to be IDd by her green tennis shoes. onecaliberal Sep 2024 #52

I'll disagree with you a little bit there.... Happy Hoosier Sep 2024 #58

Most civilians use the .223 Remington in their AR-15 rifle Kaleva Sep 2024 #99

Right... Happy Hoosier Sep 2024 #100

Yes. It depends on the person Kaleva Sep 2024 #120

I don't have an AR-15 sarisataka Sep 2024 #91

Gunners like them because it bolsters their ego. One can hunt just about anything with a bolt action rifle. Not as good Silent Type Sep 2024 #55

How so? Happy Hoosier Sep 2024 #25

Interesting perspective. AllyCat Sep 2024 #31

Why I think you still have the wrong end of the stick.... Happy Hoosier Sep 2024 #42

Coyote, yes, small game, depends on area, lacking info on deer hunting. yagotme Sep 2024 #124

I doubt all this hair-splitting matters to the loved ones of the dead. lindysalsagal Sep 2024 #32

Agreed. It's a culture of toxic masculinity. Doodley Sep 2024 #48

As I said, I quit hunting long ago. gab13by13 Sep 2024 #34

A Remington 870 20 gauge pump with a slug tube works just fine for deer and regular tub for small game Botany Sep 2024 #38
