[QUOTE="BillM, post: 3792607, member: 45785"] My 1903 Springfield was designed as a weapon of war, and used as such in two wars and a number of other actions that were not declared wars. AR-15's are less powerful, less accurate at longer ranges, and don't have the select-fire capabilities of more modern weapons of war like the M-16 & M4 even when chambered for the same cartridge. I'm a Master Sergeant. How in heck would that change or affect the other facts I just cited? Not a bit, IMO. AR-15's are not a weapon of war! I don't care much for them, but I cannot see that they are inherently more dangerous than my Springfield. I'm also pretty sure that I could use my Ruger 10/22 as a weapon of war. Wars have been fought with rocks and sticks for quite a bit longer than firearms of any sort have existed. [/QUOTE]
