Again, more ignorance. I was an Olympic class shooter, sponsored by the NRA, and was eliminated in the regionals. I own many firearms, all with a specific purpose. One for quail, one for duck, one for deer, one for rabbit, etc. I, and every single one of my six children, are Appleseed qualified. And it is really not skill, it is an inherited trait, born with it, like Sergeant York once said. Of course, you don't even know who he was.
I mean I could tell you lots of stories. Like it was my ancestor that shot Fergunson off his horse at King's Mountain, with his father's gun. Or my grandfather, who always took more birds than shells used, you figure out how that happened. But perhaps the best is my middle son. I bought him and his brothers a .22 caliber air rifle for Christmas and I woke up one morning to seeing him in the front yard shooting at a can 30 yards away. He was seven at the time. I walked out to him and told him, you can't hit a can at 30 yards with that air rifle. The wind, the distance, it just isn't reasonable. He looked at me like I was nuts, and calmly walked me to the can. It was riddled with holes.
I doubt you even know what an egg shoot is. So no need to explain to you how I was restricted from entering after winning several years in a row. Suffice it to say, not a single participant used an AR-15. But what you should learn is that a gun is a tool. Nothing more and nothing less. And using the right tool, in the right situation, is the key. And an assault rifle, the only situation that it provides a distinct advantage is shooting up schools filled with children or rampaging in a shopping center.
