No, what you spit out above is misinformation. The AR15 was the prototype for the m16 assault rifle, which was indeed a weapon of war.


The AR-15 that was a prototype for the mM-16, is not the civilian legal semi-auto AR-15 commonly owned by by people now days.

No it is a loophole in the law.


The law failing to do what it was never intended to do, is no loophole.
