........When most of the AR interest started was when Bill Clinton made a big deal of "assault" weapons. The gun and hunting public got nervous and started to embrace that which they thought was going to be taken away forever. Then came Bush. Back in business. Now Obama. The fear level rises once more. If you don't think that is the case, va, explain why the AR type guns were so hard to purchase immediately before his inauguration and afterward? Ammunition and reloading components too? People who didn't even care for the looks of AR-type weapons were buying them at an unbelieveable rate. Then they started to shoot them some, and found out just how darned accurate they are. Now, va, are you with me so far? OK. Guess that ought to tell you why, for the most part, guys like to hunt with them. And there isn't a darned thing wrong with that.

As far as your attack on the NRA, it just seems to me that you are completely out of touch with reality with your assertions. So the NRA has nice headquarters...So what?? So does my bank. and my Doctor's office. If it wasn't for the NRA and their lobbying efforts, I will guarantee you, mister, you probably wouldn't have the firearms freedoms you have today. May God bless Wayne LaPierre and the NRA and the GOA. Without these watchdogs on our side, we would be in a bad position. Anyone who comes on here and badmouths the NRA has their head in the sand, in my opinion. And in that position, you know what's sticking up in the air, don't you? That's the position the "anti's" love to see you in....It's soooo much easier for them to do what they do best.....
