They know nothing about firearms which explains the arbitrary nonsense in their gun control bills. 13 round revolver... jesus christ!

>That's not the issue. The issue is them trying to divert the conversation by changing it to one about whether X gun is an AR or not. It's a classic alt-right tactic, getting you to debate about something other than whatever you were originally talking about. Most adults know what an assault rifle is, even if they don't know the particulars about whether it's this weapon with a few letters and a number or this other weapon with letters and a number is an assault rifle.

>It's a lame attempt to get a "gotcha" moment by implying that if you don't know everything about guns then your opinion is invalid.
