The hell does ANYONE, and that includes Parker, NEED an AR clone for? You really think you need more than 8 shots from a .45 to defend yourself and your home? Lotta fire-fights where you live?

If a 12 ga. Remington 870, .30-06 and a .357 are not sufficient, then it's Red Dawn.

And calling an AR-15 a "modern sporting rifle" is done for the same reason that the tribes referring to gambling as "gaming"- because it sounds less scary. Doesn't change the fact that it's BS marketing designed to make you feel better about your decision that you want to own an AR (or gamble) because you farking WANT TO.

I get that, I want to own a Dodge Demon but I am not going to try to persuade myself that I somehow need it. As for getting rid of the ones already out there, simple- $500 per gun returned. No, I know you paid a lot more than that for you Colt LE6920, but I bet a lot of those ARs are sitting unused in the safe and the wife would be happy if you got rid of the gaddam thing you only bought because you thought Obama was coming to take it away. That's a measly $8 million which is not even the Pentagon's toilet paper budget. We did it for clunkers, why not ARs?
