Original Note:
"Weapons of war" are already banned in the US. An AR-15 is not a "weapon of war" and is not used by the military. It's ammo/rounds are a very common variety in rifles, the AR-15 does not increase velocity or stopping power. A different look, doesn't change these basic facts. https://www.congress.gov/bill/99th-congress/senate-bill/49 https://www.classicfirearms.com/news/general/ar-15-ammo-explained-223-remington-5-56-nato-300-blackout-more/
