RE: “UR-15” (Utility Rifle) – Renaming Eugene Stoner’s Iconic AR-15 (and variants)

in #shooting7 years ago

Great post on the classic AR-15. They really are a great choice for the homesteader and easy to come by here in the US.

"Assault" Rifle was a term coined by big media to make them sound more dangerous. The AR in AR-15 actually stands for ArmaLite Rifle which is the company that created it.

Sort:  

Really? I didn't know that about the origin of the "AR" name... the ArmaLite Rifle thing.

I totally agree with your saying "--really are a great choice for the homesteader--".
