I am in the process of building an AR .223 right now and I 100% plan on using it for hunting. My 30-06 Remington will have a longer range and much more take down power, but I prefer the AR because of the lack of recoil. Although I will never label myself as a veteran, I trained for 3.5 years in the ROTC every single day carrying around an M16 and quite a few weekends shooting and using an M16 and I grew accustom to it. I love it for its lack of recoil, accuracy, and mostly reliable action. Right now I have really messed up shoulders as some of the people on here can attest to, so shooting my 30-06 actually causes pain… which is why I will be hunting all small game next year with my AR and only using my Remington for big game.

So tell me again how an ‘assault weapon’ is only used for killing people…
