Not at all. The Second Amerndment doesn't protect them. See D.C. v.

Heller. Where does it say ARs are protected?



Actually Gunner , he's just expressing his opinion of one particular model

of semi-auto rifle . While I see the utility value of a semi-auto for

certain situations ... I do not now own nor do I plan on purchasing an

AR15/M16 clone . It's long been my opinion that they're not worth the asking

price TO ME . 5.56 MM is designed to WOUND , which ties up a lot more

resources and personnel than outright killing . While that is acceptable and

in fact desirable in a military action , I for one do not want a bunch of

wounded guys hollerin' out in the front yard . Not only will that attract

more pests , it may very well disturb my sleep . I like .30 cal minimum for

defense ...

Now before y'all jump on me for "wanting to mow 'em down as they attack"

let me just say that that is ONE scenario , which if I get my stuff right

will never happen . I'd much rather slip away unseen and unheard than have

an armed confrontation . Actually , where I'm moving to pretty much

everybody is of a like mind , rendering the point moot . Country boy can

survive ...

one of the cool things about the AR platform is that by simply swapping
the upper receiver you can go to .300.

although not of much value for hunting, if you build the round correctly it's suppressible.
