David Schechter, a journalist for Dallas, Texas-based ABC affiliate WFAA-TV takes a look at the reasons to own an AR-15 as part of his Verify program, a news segment that takes viewers questions.
The question posed came from Allison, a self-described conservative who says she supports the right to keep and bear arms but has some qualms about why, specifically, an AR-15 should be available.
To answer that, they head to Jerah Hutchins, a certified firearms instructor who walks them through shooting an AR at an area range– which Allison seems to really enjoy, but she is still on the fence. |

You really ought not own just one. You guys know they're available in numerous calibers, right?
GO .308!
Seriously, 5.56 is nice to. And .300 blackout. And....well, heck, choose YOUR caliber! |

Allison, there can BE no reservations.
The Second Amendment was ratified to guarantee that the people can keep and bear MILITIA weapons.
If an AR-15 isn't a militia weapon, what IS? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
