Original Note:
The AR-15 platform rifle is not "the weapon of choice for mass shooters". The overwhelming majority of firearm related homicides, including mass shootings, are committed with hand guns. https://abcnews.go.com/US/type-gun-us-homicides-ar-15/story?id=78689504 Only 26% of mass shootings are committed with a rifle of any type. https://www.usconcealedcarry.com/resources/gun-facts-and-fiction/mass-shootings/
