Thanks. It seems like this is too powerful for that but as long as the targets aren't children or other humans then you have that right.
The standard AR-15 shoots a very small, .22 caliber round (5.56MM/.223) originally designed for small game. There are MUCH more powerful rifle rounds out there. It is NOT a powerful cartridge compared to many others.

As I said, then they better not watch me engage the paper man........I tend to do that with a .308.
Firing that rifle, it's a WHOMP! when it sends a round down range. That WHOMP! is better than sex!
The civilians of this country are protected under the constitution to be able to buy what ever the United States government buys. In fact, we are permitted to have our own armed militia, which is a military unit comprised of civilians. Any politician or person who gets in the way of those rights should be shot on sight for treason and failure to uphold the United States Constitution.
Its truly sad so many people are conditioned to this extent that they do not believe anyone except military and law enforcement should have some weapons!!
The whole intent of the 2nd was the founding fathers best defense against tyranny, there is liberty when a govt fears its people. But I guess I shouldnt be surprised, I mean, after all, what would a tyrannical govt naturally seek to do...make majority of its people believe they should not have access to certain weapons, its tyranny disguised as security, its a shame more people cannot recognize this.
1. The military has them, the government.
2. The people need them to make sure those who are a part of number 1, try anything The People have some defense.
So everything else with guns between Killings, hunting etc is a side effect of that freedom. Example drinking is legal and you can die and kill other people drunk with a car. That Freedom has its effects.
Which is why the government spends so much time trying to restrict "The People" from guns :-)
Very much what I have argued in the past: banning certain type of weapons does not violate the spirit of the Second Amendment. We still have a Federal law banning private ownership of fully automatic weapons (those that with one sustained squeeze of the trigger will fire ammo until the trigger is released). As you say, the people will be able to purchase handguns, shotguns, and various long rifles (for those worried that mass murderers will be hampered, recall that Charles Whitman used a deer rifle).

"Power" is determined by the caliber and load of the type of ammo.
The AR platform comes in several calibers and types of rounds.
The most common and popular is the 5.56/223 which was originally designed for medium size varmint hunting.
