Caleb points us to this article in WV Metro news on the AR pattern rifle: Truly, all firearms are based on a military model at some point. Most bolt action rifles that today are considered hunting firearms are based of the 1903 Springfield or 1898 Mauser design. Muzzleloaders have roots in the Revolutionary and Civil War arsenals. Most firearm companies have made their mark creating military weapons and then adapting them to civilian use.
Today, the "black sheep" image that has hung over the AR-15 is evaporating. Take the time to read the article, and pass it along to your hunting buddies. I think it is pretty clear that semi-automatic AR pattern rifles easily fall into the category of "in common use" now. |
