AR-15 Fake News by Uncle Ted

Why not build? Those high dollar names are overpriced.

Just one of the things in life Ive choosen to buy the "ferrari" version of.

Thanks. This is exactly what I suspected. LOL. But your hobby is harmless. Like collecting china cabinets. They won't be worth anything and nobody will want them.

just curious How much do those rifles cost? It would be better if you had put the dough into a trust fund.

Larues were 2k+ and mp15s 750.

Months salary and it was something that we enjoy regularly so money well spent. Dont worry about my childrens trust fund. As it turns out I didnt move across the entire country recently for a pay cut.

It would be as interesting to me as an article in Tractor Weekly on the changes that Gravely made to mid-sized tractors in 1956. Not that I'm against tractors either. I just want to the carnage from Tractors to stop too.

On the other hand, everybody wants to hear from a non-gun tractor owner like me who "read an article" or "saw the video". So, maybe I'll reconsider. I mean the world, with so many tractor experts who could write effective laws to reduce tractor homicides need me to edit and approve it.

No offense, I'm just playing with an idea that I think is pretty funny. It's just that I'm more interested in bread making than the history behind the name of the AR-15. I'm fine with others wanting to. Also agree that effective gun laws can only be written by a coalition of stakeholders, law enforcement, lawyers and law makers. If you want a passionate voice from the mass of ignorant people who want other people to hear their opinion, talk with @ttystikk

I meant read the CNN article about the actual number of ar15 sold and how the last ban and media coverage actually popularized the rifle and drove sales.

I don't think many people care. I think most people care that whatever the name of the rifle is, that it not be used to murder a large number of kids in a single shooting incident.

But, do go on about the actual number of ar15 sold.

Don't know the actual number. From the article it went from thousands sold a year to hundreds of thousands during the last ban. That number is even higher now.

Care or don't care about the actual name. Just saying making something up is going to turn people off to actually listening.

I enjoy every moment. Money well spent.

Oh yes, I'm sure having multiple high power rifles still in their packaging is money well spent. I went on a diving trip with my wife to Costa Rica for the amount you spent on those things. Of course all I have are the shared memories and photos. You, on the other hand still have those unused rifles, so I can see how you made the right choice. I'm not criticizing so don't get your hackles up.

Yeah we take trips too and have lots of pictures too. And I also have some firearms.

A diving trip to costa rica is only 14k?

I might have to take the wife this year...twice.

It depends on how you do it. One can always spend more. The people in Costa Rica won't mind.
