The primary use of the AR is for target practice , home defense and competition. It always amazes me how people just don't know or want to know. There is no gun that did not get its design DNA from some military firearm. Bolt actions, look to Paul Mauser designs for the German Austrian military, Lever actions, Look to the Henry rifle designed for the Civil war. Flint locks look to the Brown Bess and other guns of the day. From the first hand cannon to todays M4. To put a line on how many rounds a mag can hold is just stupid. First off it will create a black market for these mags and criminals will get them anyway. There are literally many more millions of mags compared to guns in the USA. Ban them all? Ya that will work, NOT.
A magazine is a steel square box. How hard is it for a 3d printer to make up one or for someone with a metal break to bend up one? About 10 mins work. The same follower will work in a 10 round mag or a 50 round mag. The public has shown time and again that they can get around bans by being clever, such as the bullet button in Cal. mags that are compliant that can be easily changed like the 30 round attached 1022 mag.
The industry promotes them as combat and assault weapons, one of the most popular on the market due to their strategy. I don't believe they promote it as home defense gun or target practice, I'm not sure why anyone would need an AR15 for home defense in the first place
Many of these weapons are so old, pre 1900, that the maker isn't alive nor is the Company. Who these morons going to go after now? The maker of the casket the gun designer is buried in?
Browning, Colt, Remington, Thompson, are all still in business, with the smaller arms makers being bought buy one of those.

The liberal social justice warriors will find someone to blame as long as it isn't the person who actually pulled the trigger.
Ridiculous. If he had used a Ford truck to run over his victims could the families sue Ford?
My thoughts exactly. Priscilla Ford killed six people a critically injured 23 with her lincoln Continental. Thanksgivi g day 1980 That was one of the more infamous vehicular homicides, but here there have been a LOT of them. Why no blame on the car makers? what about suing Boeing for 911? Makes as much sense. Or maybe the fertilizer more a d fuel refiner who make McVekys materials. This is just plain moronic. There is NO legal precedence for this, and any judge willing to hear it in his court should be recused fort bias on behalf of the plaintiffs.
It's really sad that despite the facts that gun owners are more likely to die from gun violence, this keeps happening. Like a drug user thinking "yeah but addiction won't happen to ME."
They keep saying it because it's a lie that was debunked years ago that gun owners are more likely to die than anyone else, of course being a lie doesn't prevent anti gun nuts from repeating the fantasy over and over and over.
That fairy tale was based on ONE study of 3 small neighborhoods that had vastly higher rates of crime and people with felony convictions, which the anti gun nuts then extrapolated out to the rest of the country. Don't let the facts get in the way of your fantasy of dangerous gun owners.
The M16 holds a lot more rounds of ammo than that rifle you pictured. A BETA Mag holds 100 rounds.
LOL, I'm sure a skilled killer could take out the enemy with toothbrushes and toilet paper.
Talk about hyperbole..!
Let this stick in your craw. I've seen a guy take two AK drum mags, weld them together to fit a PSL. 100 round drum mag in 7.62 x 54 and it took him 15 minutes to create.

Exactly, when they can just use a mini-14
Oh the logic.
