Nice pro AR 15 segment.

I liked that presentation. I also like the idea of the AR15 being called a modern day sporting rife instead of what the anti gunners call it. I have to remember that. I have an AR15 MDSR. Cool ;)

Nice to see the AR platform becoming so normalized. When I bought my first one in the 70s, a lot of the "Elmer Fudd" types at the range didn't like it all. "Why do you need THAT?"

Fast forward 40 years and it's the #1 selling rifle. And ( horror of horrors) the AK is the number 2 platform.

10s of millions of these modern sporting rifles out there. And rarely used in crime.
