As described over and over, AR pattern guns were originally designed
for military use. Most of their design features have no legitimate

guys at a shooting range. One can say similar things about many handguns.

Thanks for making my point again, by as usual purposefully conflating
full auto AR or AK or whatever long guns with semi civilian models.

Light weight, compact size, light ammunition allowing carrying lots of
rounds, magazines that are big and replaceable with huge ones, grips
that aid portability when running and aid recoil control during rapid
fire, plus many available "custom" attachments make AR and AK guns the
weapon of choice for killing unsuspecting crowds,

Those are features available on many other guns.

I think the fact that they look like the military guns is the reason
many people buy them, and that they are scary looking is the reason
the anti-gun loons hate them.

It really comes down to how they look.
