Tbh I thought the same for a long time, it just makes sense, you are assaulting the enemy, the rifle is smaller, handier and fires an intermediate, more controllable cartridge, great for a quick assault.
Plus of course the concept pretty much originated with the German sturmgewehr, which would be literally translated to "Storm gun", the "storm" here being in the context of storming the enemy, which can have the same meaning as assaulting the enemy.
It was only recently I learned what AR really stood for, and I still prefer calling it an assault rifle, idgaf how much the media tried to twist that term.
The military doesn't use AR-15s, never has, never will. "Assault rifle" is just not an accurate term. Anything can be used to assault someone, including all rifles, other guns, sticks, and bare hands. So there is no such real classification as "assault rifle," except in the leftist media's minds.
...yeah they use M4s? which is basically the same thing?
My point is that the term "assault" has a very specific meaning in military terms, and so a weapon being called an "assault rifle" would make perfect sense, AR-15 or not, it's a rifle, that has a set of characteristics, to serve a specific purpose.
Should we bend over and stop using the term because leftist retards were programmed to think it's bad?
I've never used the term "assault" in front of anything, as anything can be used to assault someone. An AR-15 is for targets or hunting or anything else you want it for. It's not just for "assault."
The M4 is not "basically the same thing." Military weapons are fully automatic. The AR-15 is semi-automatic, way different. Look it up.
...Yeah they are made to be semi-auto only, but the platform is the exact same, look it up.
Hey listen, you can keep obeying the media's commands and stop using the term, I really dgaf
The term "sturmgewehr" referred to the Stg 44 a particular rifle not a class of rifles.
But words matter.
What if you drove a GMC...and everyone referred to it as a GayMansCar. I mean like everybody. I’d be correcting people real quick!
Youve never seen or fired an AR have you?
No I haven't, I'm not american, I literally can't(would love to though), never implied I had, what I learned was from videos watched and research.
What about any of what I said is wrong? what is your point?
Your argument is as ridiculous as saying lets call every car a camero because a camero is a car.
Stg-44 The term sturmgewehr referred to the Stg-44 a particular rifle not a class of rifles.
Should make you wonder what the "Stg" stands for, hmmmmm...
S T urm G ewehr
...Yes I know it comes from STG 44... What I meant, and this would be obvious to anyone with a modicum of intellectual capacity, is that said rifle was, potentially, the inspiration to create the class of weapon.
Up until that point military forces of every nation were still using full length rifles firing powerful rounds that would be ballistically viable to distances of 800 yards+ for infantry
Germany sees the need to have a smaller, handier rifle, firing a less powerful, intermediate round, for closer combat ranges, so they create the sturmgewehr, which highly influences the creation of the AK, a smaller rifle, firing a intermediate round (7.62x39 instead of 7.62x54r), essentially creating the new class of weapon, they even look similar.
Did you really think I didn't know about the STG 44? I love how you believe you had a big "gotcha" moment there, only made you look like a retard.
I would suggest you do some studying yourself, but in your case what is needed is a higher IQ, and that, of course, is impossible.
Because if you had you would know that the AR-15 could never be used as an assault weapon. It is a very small caliber, hardly larger than a kids first .22 semiautomatic. It looks menacing but it isnt. Consumer grade body armor is effective against it and military grade armor isnt dented by it. It is a small light weapon with no kick. It is a fun platform to shoot and is easily handled by women and children. It isnt a gun you would use to hunt a deer and definitely wouldnt be my first choice, or even 10th choice, as a defensive or offensive platform. As far as weapons go, it is hardly more than a toy.
Have you ever watched a biathalon? Where the athlete cross country skis and then shoots at targets from a standing, kneeling or prone position? You see them hit the target and it is like a plink? That is similar to your basic .556 or .223 round for an AR-15. Accurate, with a fairly high rate of fire, but with no stopping power. Shoot a large man with it and if it isnt in the head he will keep on coming.
So let me get this straight, a 556 round, has the same kinetic energy than a 22 lr? is that what you're saying?
There's one guy saying "assault" can be used for anything, so it shouldn't be used, but your logic takes the cake, it shouldn't be used because it's just a toy, therefore it doesn't even qualify as "assault", boy the US military sure is brave by sending all their forces with a toy gun to conflicts all this time.
You guys getting all your panties on fire by the use of the term "assault" is very funny, it's just a word, the meaning could be very fitting, you're being played by propaganda just as leftist sheep do, only in reverse, you just don't realize it.
Thanks for pointing that out. Some quick research to ensure I banned the right user and ban hammer it was
U/PolishBaldEagle quick! Help! How do I tell which one is which?? Someone may have infiltrated and deceived you completely but there’s no way to know who because their names are similar! Lololo
Z—where’s your mojo buddy? Usually you get anons banned right off the block and you don’t have to go begging cap in hand for a pity-ban. Is it possible even the mods are tired of you violating rules of conduct? Keep at it boy! Don’t let that German destroy the America you worked so hard to build!
Oh hey bud! Don’t worry, I won’t ban for just anything nor will I ban you for expressing your opinion here. That user was banned for impersonating a different user, and based on comment history, it was with Mal intent. As for how I know it was the right person? Well I partially answered that above, along with some other basic and more advanced tools we have at our disposition.
Though, rest assured, I’m sure they’ll join with a different username
