The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"he AR-15 platform (Modern Sporting Rifles - MSRs) is widely considered the most popular type of long gun in the U.S. for its versatility in sport, defense, and hunting,"

I use a bolt action 30.06, I see no need for any hunter to need to spew lead at a
high rate. 1 shot at a time, make an unrushed, accurate shot, or don't shoot at all.

I hear all of the gun nuts excuses for why they need fast rate of fire, but it is all
fantasy bullshyte, imo. A responsible hunter takes an ethical kill shot, doesn't
rain lead down on the target. But I don't know any responsible hunters who are
obsessed with the big bad government coming to pry their precious, patriotic ar15
from their hands.
