Original Note:
AR-15 rifles were around for 40+ years before used in a mass killing. The AR-15 is not used in the military & is semi-automatic meaning the trigger must be pulled for each shot. Military uses fully automatic rifles that require holding the trigger to fire multiple rounds. https://www.npr.org/2018/02/28/588861820/a-brief-history-of-the-ar-15 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AR-15_style_rifle
