I don't hunt, but if I needed to I am sure my Colt AR would do just fine.
Best response: "You're wrong about that, but you're also missing the point."
Akita1 said:Not sure I agree - freedom comes first, then hunting (and yes, I am an avid hunter and use ARs to hunt). 2A is not about hunting, it's about freedom from tyranny. Hunting with such tools granted under that banner is a fringe benefit.
Justin said:Whenever someone says "ARs aren't used for hunting" ask them why there are so many hits for a Google image search for "AR rifle, hunting."
The argument used by some - AR's aren't used for hunting - does need to be addressed. Those who say it are repeating 1) a lie, and 2) are completely uninformed. And, I hear it from gun guys, too. The president of the National Turkey Federation said it the other day.
The right answer is WHO CARES IF ANYONE HUNTS WITH IT? the 2a wasn't written with sportsman in mind.
Or...."you really don't know anything about guns, and probably should educate yourself before you start spouting off"
On the run through the heart - impressive!What a person legally uses a firearm for has nothing to do with whether it should be banned or not.
That being said, I would call one 62 gr. soft point through the heart while running a humane kill.
Roger thatWas speaking about modern times. 2A was written to prevent tyranny. It has been on the back burner for 200 years. Been moving closer to the front recently.
I was debating an anti not too long ago who claimed the second was about hunting. He felt stupid when I said "Yes the founding fathers loved hunting so much, the made it the second rule when building a new government. The really loved their tasty, yummy deer."
