"Why do you need an AR-15"

I expect a 10000:1 loss of zombies . they are unarmed zombies. they can't run. that is why you funnel them into the kill zone and make short work of their dumb asses.

When you underestimate the zombies is when they get you. I hope you win. I always root for the living over zombies.

Really? Because I know a lot of hunters that DO use those rifles. To great effect. Not everyone is a Boomer Fudd. You wanna know something else? I know A LOT of women who own ARs and similar rifles. Hell, even married one. I know its pretty much the ONLY rifle for any sort of competition shooting nowadays.

I hear that a lot, and once again I call Bull Shit.

If you know The AR-15 or it's sister The M-16, and you know Ballistics ... anything you HUNT with that caliber of Bullet, you ain't eating.

Why does anyone NEED more then 1 TV?
Why does anyone NEED a car that goes faster then 55?
Why does anyone NEED a house that has 4 or 5 bedrooms and 2 or 3 bathrooms?
Why does anyone NEED a computer, outside of work?

Sometimes "need" has nothing to do with it.

Odd. Everything you picked actually has a use. The one exception was the AR. You do not argue so well.

I know a little about ballistics, also about bullet configuration, energy, expansion and velocities to name a few. Normally, I use a .308 dia. 165 gr. Serra projectile for larger game (deer) in my 700 BDL, but also kept (at that time) a .220 Swift in my trunk as a backup, loaded with 65 gr. Nosler projectiles. Many years ago while eating lunch with a few other hunters by a long open field, a deer was grazing about 10 yards just inside the woods about 500+ yards away. Two of those other hunters, one with a .308 and I'm not sure about the other, started shooting at it. Their bullets were hitting about 100 yd. or less in the field and didn't get the deer's attention. Leaning against a telephone pole, I fired one round from my .220 Swift and dropped that deer in it's tracks. Yes, the bullet left a larger entry hole and shredded the heart and a lung, but the rest of the meat was relatively unharmed. Would I recommend using this (or any .223 dia. projectile) for big game?, Absolutely not, but that's not saying it can't be used without damaging the meat if the shot is well placed.

Because there's is no such thing as a NEED for an AR-15.

I'd say that it falls in line with you wanting a Corvette and me wanting a Cobra. Both can raise hell on the streets, but are legal to own. Just as an AR-15 is.

Just like the things I've listed:
Why does anyone NEED more then 1 TV?
Why does anyone NEED a car that goes faster then 55?
Why does anyone NEED a house that has 4 or 5 bedrooms and 2 or 3 bathrooms?
Why does anyone NEED a computer, outside of work?

You know ARs come in more than just .223 right? You know that not every animal you hunt is a deer right? Coyote, wild pigs, ground hogs, Etc.

I find it very telling and amusing when someone attempts to declare another as some racist or bigot.....by projecting bigotry. As I said.....the perfect reverse barometer is the quint essential leftist....if you want to know the truth about something just invert the accusation (:

What passes as conservative wisdom ...
General Custer to officer: Anything that man tells me will be a lie. Therefore, he will be perfect reverse barometer. . . .
Custer to Jack Crabb: What should I do, mule skinner? . . . . Should I go down there, or withdraw? . . . What's your answer, mule skinner?
Crabb: General, you go down there.
Custer: You're saying, go into the coulee?
Crabb: Yes, sir.
Custer: There are no Indians there, I suppose?
Crabb: I didn't say that. There are thousands of Indians down there, and when they get done with you, there won't be nothing left but a greasy spot. . . . You go down there if you got the nerve.
Custer: Still trying to outsmart me, aren't you, mule skinner? You want me to think that you don't want me to go down there, but the subtle truth is you really don't want me to go down there. . . Men of the Seventh! The hour of victory is at hand! Onward to Little Bighorn and glory!

The .223 caliber bullet of the AR-15 used to make the rifle illegal for hunting big game, because it was considered too weak to make for a humane kill.

Owning guns and sports cars aren't compensating for any issues, fool. They are interests and/or hobbies. Maybe you should pursue one sometime, it makes dealing with stupid people like yourself far less stressful..
