Dwarf,
I've made the point..
Repeatedly..
You've been diverting and dissembling.
AR15 rifles are sold to civilians ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY because they look like a military weapon (not entirely coincidentally, as it was designed and developed as such). They were NOT designed or developed for any civilian application...they were modified to conform with existing laws, so Colt could sell more units from their fixed capacity investment in the military orders for AR 15s.
Because the modifications only limit the original functionality at the margin, they can be "overridden", and its limitations from such modification overcome.
What function are they limiting? Next, your passage only relates to colt. Once the license ran out many companies that are not involved in military rifles designed semi auto sports weapons and dubbed them ARs. Why they should they be banned?
