AK-47s are turning up more in US

Bad guys carry AKs, good guys carry ARs.
Bad guys carry Hi-Points, Good guys carry Glocks.
People may not like it, but that is the way it is on this part of planet earth.

I'm not sure what part of Planet Earth you're referring to, but in this country, the bad guys carry mostly handguns, and AK's are primarily in the hands of Good Guys. All rifles combined account for only half as many murders nationwide as shoes and bare hands do.

This is my primary rifle, and I shoot IPSC/USPSA with it. FWIW, I've never even had a speeding ticket.

I'm guessing there will always be people who try to convince themselves there is a such thing as a politically correct gun. That's probably why incrementalism works.

you know whats sad? A 300% increase, or whatever, ended up making these guns account for ~4% of gun crime, whereas .357 and .38 revolvers still account for what? 60%? Then the other 20% are semi-autos, followed by shotguns, then knives and baseball bats, then assault rifles?

Holy crap, sure is frightening

drugs, guns, violence, sex. Anyone wanna know why they'll write an 8-page article on those, but only a page or so on anything else?
