An interesting myth that has been perpetuated by the media is that AR (as in AR-15) means Assault Rifle or Automatic Rifle. It means neither.....AR comes from Armalite Rifle, the original manufacturer of the first AR-5 back in the 50's.
I was at the SHOT Show last week in Vegas. Most of the guys I talked with didn't have a problem with smaller clip sizes but as far as guns are concerned, if things go south in DC, they're all prepared to go 24 hours a day, six days a week to make parts.
