It's not that accurate. Realistically, the only difference is select fire between the military use versions and the ones we can buy at the gun store today. Full auto or burst has its value in certain situations but isn't like this magical mass slaughter switch. If you stick a hundred people in a tight space and full auto at them yeah, you're going to kill a lot of people but you could do the same amount of damage with a semi auto rifle too because the hundred people are trapped in a tight space. You could also throw a bomb in there and mess a lot of them up. It's the location that makes it possible to a lot of harm to a lot of people more than the tool itself. You can still buy AR-15 lowers that have select fire. They are just extremely expensive because they banned the sale of new models for sale for private ownership in 1986. It was effectively banned for the regular man in 1934 because a 200 dollar tax was like paying for a car back in those days. Select fire AR-15s and other machine guns these days are essentially rich people investments. People buy them to hold onto as appreciating assets. It's all a load of bullshit.

@kabloosh699 ....it is accurate. And you make it sound like owning a "Machine Gun" is easy. To legally own a machine gun, you first have to apply for approval from the federal government. After purchasing the gun, you must fill out an ATF Form 4 application and wait for approval before taking possession of the firearm. The FBI conducts a thorough background check using fingerprints and a photograph required with your application, which could take 9 to 12 months to process. The gun will need to stay in possession of the previous owner until the process is complete. In addition, you will need to pay a $200 “NFA tax stamp” for each weapon transaction. If approved, you will receive your paperwork in the mail that includes a permit with the listed lawful possessor of the firearm. Only then can you take the machine gun home and possess it legally. The Federal Government denies The Vast Majority of these applications unless you Have an Extremely good reason.

I understand that firing guns is fun and for the majority of people it's just a hobby, however I also understand that having grown up without guns I do not miss them. It's one of the millions of enjoyable pastimes I don't partake in, it only seems like a big deal because you enjoy it currently and it seems like something will be taken away.

Close but not quite accurate... the report keeps saying "assault weapons" 1:27 -- as if that term has any defined meaning -- it does not. It is a epithet term created by the gun control lobby and Democrats to make a ban of any semi-automatic weapon with "forbidden features" more acceptable. They could not use the term "assault rifle" - because that has some meaning already with military weapons. Any semi-auto firearm (rifle, pistol, shotgun, etc.) falls under their "assault weapons" made-up terminology. Now fully automatic "Machine guns" (i.e. for "military and law enforcement only") firearms are essentially banned to civilians, though that too is an infringement upon the 2A which protects all bearable arms rights to the People -- not the government.

When I was a kid in the uk back in the 70's and 80's, loads of us had Swiss Army knives at school. Teachers never bothered because no one was ever stabbed or even threatened. Even the "rough kids" never used knives. If a fight broke out, it was ALWAYS just fists, never weapons, not even rocks. We didn't think of them as weapons, they were tools. We'd sit at break time, whittling sticks into tiny model boats, or use them to peel apples, cut string (and the shoe laces of anyone caught sleeping). Every kid I knew had one, and the ONLY time we got hurt, was when we cut ourselves and the teachers would tell us to be more careful! I even had a stiletto, not to stab people, but because it was a "cool" knife to have. "Hey, guys, look what I got".. " Wow, cool. Where did you buy that? How much was it"? Again, no one was ever hurt with it.

Excellent Piece Its so refreshing to see a real news outlet doing a real story without lying to score political points. I haven’t seen this kind of honest reporting in decades (certainly not a firearms piece covered so fairly anyway). The only thing i see that could have been better was the fact that towards the end your showing an AK with a bump stock and appear to call it an AR-15 and there is no commentary about the bump stock. This is just an observation but has nothing to do with the fact that this was an honest, politically neutral, “actual news story” the likes of which we don’t see anymore. Literally the first time ive seen any news outlet say that 1) AR stands for armalight not assault rifle 2) ar15’s are not assault rifles 3) assault rifles are already illegal and have been since the 1930’s 4) 1/3 or more of American households have a gun in them 5) almost 100% of “mass shootings” are done with pistols (the exception being a few high profile cases that we all know about) almost all the rest are committed using pistols Good job guys!!! I cant say enough how refreshing it is to see a real news outfit!!! God bless!

Much credit to this report for clarifying most of the gun control propaganda around the term "assault weapons" (in audio) or "assault rifle" (in title). Though "assault weapon" 1:27 -- does not have a clearly defined meaning as it changes based on each gun control law and is simply an epithet term created by the gun control lobby and Democrats to make it easier for non-informed citizens to accept a ban/confiscation of any/all semi-automatic firearms (i.e. rifle, pistol, shotgun) with "scary features" (e.g. pistol grip, muzzle device, detachable magazine, barrel shroud, etc). Gun grabbers could not use the term "assault rifle" - because that has some meaning already with military firearms. Now 0:43 fully automatic "Machine guns" (i.e. for "military and law enforcement only") firearms are essentially banned to civilians, though that too is an infringement upon the 2A which protects all bearable arms rights to the People -- not the government.

The guy working at the gun store has the history off but has the right idea. The M16 came AFTER the AR-10 / AR-15. The original AR-15's (before the patent got sold to Colt) were full auto, and if memory serves me correctly were made for the air-force. Once the military decided to fully adopt the design later into Vietnam, they designated it as the M16.
@scavl14 Жыл бұрын
Right, the only thing that gets me is that people will carelessly call a full auto, an assault weapon. It would be defined as an assault rifle nothing else. Same goes for full auto AK. Though it was pretty damn accurate and good reporting. Would have been better to have some stats that aren't cherry picked. Latest, leftist stats claim firearms are the highest causing deaths of children up to 19, a cherry-picked stat as 18-19 is considered an adult. Drop those ages out and stats drop nearly 50% down to 2500 deaths, I have seen the stat used on msm news.

The M-1, M-14 was like AT&T in the 50s and 60s, made to reach out and touch somebody. The M-16 was made because a. cheaper b. cheaper ammo c. shorter and easier to tote through the jungle. Wood stocks (M-14) not good in jungle + more expensive than plastic. Along came the M-4 for clearing buildings BUTT not that good for reaching out and touching. So what do you do you do? Train then GIs to shout one pew at a time? Time and more expensive ammo consuming or give them pew,pew,pew and pull the trigger again? Long guns require more training. Also better than a .223 for for hunting big game. But if you shoot for the between or in the eyeball a 22LR works just as well(also illegal for hunting deer). Don't forget that M-16 rifle came along at the same time as McNamara's morons and the need for a lot of fresh bodies to run through the jungle. Been there and had fun in Gulf #2. Got my 40 year letter in 2006. Qualified with M-14, M-16, M1911, M-79, M-60, M202, M72 LAW, M2 & M101. Fun to play with. Not fun to need.

Armalite originally developed the ar15 for civilians and it was not full auto. Their attempt to get the military interested saw them present the ar10 in full auto but the barrels were burning out.

It's well documented on numerous sites including Armalites site.
