Heres an AR style rifle with some addons. Now lets get educated
1. Flash Suppressor - reduces the chances that the shooter will be blinded in low light
conditions.
2. Barrel Shroud a covering attached to the barrel of a firearm, which partially or completely
encircles the barrel which prevents the shooter from injuring themselves on a hot barrel.
3. Vertical Grip is more commonly used on sport shooting rifles which makes the lateral
transition between targets easier.
4. Site or Scope gives the shooter the ability to view targets at a long distance.
5. Pistol Grip steadies the hand pulling the trigger.
6. Collapsible Stock give the shooter the ability to shorten or lengthen the stock to fit their
body frame
These cosmetic feature do nothing more than give the operator better control of the rifle. Lets
compare this to the popular Mossberg 835 12 Gauge shotgun used for Turkey hunting. The
Mossberg pictured below has a collapsible stock, pistol grip, barrel shroud, and a flash suppressor.
These features do nothing more that give the operator better control of the shotgun. However,
under the proposed Assault Weapons ban this popular hunting shotgun will be banned in the
U.S.
In closing, what our uneducated politicians dont realize is, these weapons function the same with
or without the added cosmetic feature. They dont make the firearm any more deadly. Our elected
politicians are making uneducated decisions! What other decisions are they making on topics
they have no knowledge of? Ask questions and educate yourself, not just on this topic, but on all
topics! Youve now educated on this topic so spread the word, stop someone who is incorrectly
speaking on this matter and educate them. Otherwise, the sheep following the leaders of the
country will always be mis-informed unless we speak up.
