I'm just saying the ar is not the best option out there and I don't know why people are choosing it. Mainly the hype. In almost everyone of these mass shootings a different choice of gun would've led to more people killed.
I don't mean the speed of how fast it can shoot. I mean the speed of the actual round itself. With an ar shot placement is critical.

Just before some people mistakenly associate this statement with AR-15 thus continuing the AR-15 hype. The weapon used at that shooting was military grade M240 US designation for FN MAG (French general purpose machine gun). Yes he owns an AR 'among' other platform plus this
"The high-powered weapons also included a .308-caliber AR-10 rifle and an AK-47-type rifle — as well as four Daniel Defense DDM4 rifles, three FN-15s and other rifles made by Sig Sauer, according to reports."
What I don't get though are the news network that went out their way to glorify or demonize AR-15. Reason why I don't pay attention anymore to news media....all of them left or right are more into sensationalism rather than factual reporting.
I bet the news media contribute more to the popularity/infamy of the AR-15 to the mind of people unfamiliar with weapons rather than the actual effectiveness of AR-15.
I know. I carried 12 gauge Mossberg with my 9 mm every day in the navy. But I doubt more then 10% of our military carry shotguns. At least in my experience, rifle was weapon of choice for most branches.

AR-15 has become an umbrella term referring to AR-15 style semi-auto rifles. Many manufacturers make there own version under different names, right?
The original made by Armalite, then Colt, and now a host of others.

I just read through the wiki page on the Las Vegas shooting. There is no mention of Paddock having a M240 machine gun at all. Googling it, all that comes up is conspiracy theories that he had a M240 belt fed supposedly evidenced by the audio from the videos taken during the shooting. Sounds like more fake news! I'm sure it was a top story on Infowars...
In fact, he had (14!) .223 AR-15's, all with bump stocks. Along with (7) .308 AR-10's and other smaller guns. He used bipods, high tech telescopes & 75 to 100 cartridge high capacity magazines. No history of mental illness or red flags... no criminal history other than traffic citations. No real motive proven. Crazy shit. One thing on the wiki page I didn't recall hearing about - computer forensics found 100's of images of child porn on one of the laptops in his room. Sick fucking bastard.

I shouldn't/can't LOL this. But, really, Ted Nugent really seemed intent on showing how stupid people are for wanting restrictions on the AR-15 style of weapons by showing us how deadly shotguns are. As if his argument in any way, shape or form disproved what we have seen video footage of what has been done with the AR-15.
(voice from video: AR-15 aint sheeeeet. They ah nothin compared to the super deee duper peeenis surrogate I'm fondling rat now. blam, blam, blam, blam, blam, blam, blam, blam, blam, blam!!!! See theyya, I could have taken out 300 people just like that with this beautiful killing machine-shotgun with the hand carved walnut stock. It could be yours for a mere $1,500. But that's not all, a signed autographed picture of me, Ted Nugent will be sent if you act now and call, 666-666-FKYU)

"The AR-15 rifles were fitted with vertical forward grips and bump fire stocks,[1][110] the latter of which allowed for recoil to actuate their triggers at a rate of 90 rounds in 10 seconds.[113]"
Hm, that's 9 rds/sec, comparable to the 10 rds/sec in the video of the M240. Basically fully auto with the bump stocks. So are you basing your proof on the sound alone then? Have you heard a M240 shot from a the 32nd floor of a hotel recorded by a cell phone on the street below? Do you believe there's a vast conspiracy involving the LV police, local government, entire national media, wikipedia, google, etc. to cover-up the actual gun used and pin the blame on the AR-15 so they can ban it? Am I asking too many questions? Are they listening now? aaah
