    Legislation these days are all about what a gun looks like, the fact that it's semi auto vs bolt is almost irrelevant, ARs are evil because they are black, have a comfortable grip and a bunch of holes and rails. Ruger Mini-14 is 'good' because it doesn't look evil, event though it's exactly the same thing at the end of the day.

    It's shocking the number of people out there who think that ARs are evil and why would anyone want such a 'powerful' rifle, then they stare in disbelief when you tell them that you have a bolt action with 50 round magazine that is 5 times more powerful than the AR and it's completely legal.

    At the end of the day, with any action on A-cat you squeeze the trigger once and one bullet comes out.

    ARs are tons of fun to shoot at the range and heaps of guys love hunting with them. If we have been deemed fit by the police to own a firearm, why not a AR?
