Dwarf,

You can jump up and down in place all day crying about "function", but that was never at issue..

The AR 15 was designed and developed for military use...as confirmed by EVERY citation posted on the topic.

It was not redesigned (the design being the primary source of its appeal), it was just modified..

End of story.

You leave out a lot of the history on that.  Remember, the AR 15 was firsts designed by Armalite.  They then sold to Colt.  Colt then renamed the AR 15 the AR 16 which was an automatic, FOR THE BATTLEFIELD.  They then DESIGNED a semi automatic for POLICE and CIVILIAN use.  Not designed for the battlefield and called it the AR 15 SPORTER.

You leave ou important bits of history 3 time loser.  Plus, in the examples I just gave the AR 15 IS NOT the sporter.   The weapon pictured WAS designed for the battlefield.  

So we are back to function and the fact you fear it because it looks scary.
