I need some validation here. (No one has ever accused me of being a genius.) I have to ask this question to help me understand.
What is the difference between say a Remington Model 750 and an AR-15? As far as functionality goes I see no real difference. Am I correct in saying that the difference is only the way they look? Wood grain stock as opposed to a black composite stock?
Is the issue the functionality of the gun or more the way it looks? Can you not fire a semi-auto ‘hunting’ rifle as fast or as accurate as AR type rifle?
(Magazine size is another topic.)
