The difference is virtually nobody uses the 742 to kill kids in a school, or shoppers at the store, or worshippers at their church.

That is quite a BIG difference.

And BTW, according to the US Army, they are not functionally identical. The AR is far more lethal. It was intentionally designed to be more lethal in a shorter amount of time.

Not entirely true or correct. Only the military version is offered with a fully automatic option. The civilian version, which fires only one shot with a trigger pull, is barely deadlier than a .22 rifle. It only "looks" deadly to the Loony Liberal Leftist Democrats. It is not as deadly as a .30-06 rifle or a .38 revolver.

Obviously woke wolly has no clue what the difference between an AR and an M4 is, nor does he care. He is an idiot of epic proportions.
That is quite a BIG defect.

Mass murderers nearly always choose the AR.
Why?

Maybe they think like the stupid Loony Liberal Leftist Democrats that look at gun magazines and exclaim, "Oooh. That gun is scary! Put it on the ban list!"

Because mass murderers don't have enough common sense to realize there's 50 other guns that will do exactly the same thing

It is not as stupid as you think.
There is something about ARs and mass murderers. That is almost undeniable.

All the other mass murderers are getting them.
Like when you were a kid, and the fashionable shirts were izod, or in your case maybe fred perry, you wore that because everyone else is

The six worst school mass murder shootings all have one thing in common - a young man or boy with no father, or no relationship with the father, and varying degrees of emotional/mental issues. Start there, not with the guns.

Or maybe because they're America's rifle, very popular, relatively inexpensive, and every shop has them for sale. Not because stupid wolly thinks they're scary or badass or any other of his liberal far left bullshit explanations.
I bet gatr and et wore the shit out of the alligator polo shirts... They were yuppies.
LZ was too cool to wear that shit...

I just love it when zero experience gun expert wolly weighs in on guns and function. This seems to be a very common defect with leftists and democrat politicians.

I just love it when gun nuts like Fred tell us that the US Army doesn't know anything about guns.

Maybe not said in the context of what you are quoting from, but the Army would not disagree w me if I said lethal involves the sit rep. And if you say a Army distribution paper compared the AR to a 742, I guess I gotta believe you but why they would compare the two is beyond me. I can think of a few sitreps where the AR isn't very lethal incl compared to 100 yr old pump shotgun technology that was used in my lifetime V the also available AR. If you think soldiers used the pump because it was less lethal than the AR, you bumped your head and the Army would agree w me. I can think of commonplace situations where the AR is not lethal at all. What's the sitrep? IS a .30-06 in a semiautomatic rifle lethal? Well the venerable M1 Garand with it's .30-06 8 shot 8-round en-bloc clip is said by many to be the rifle that won WWII. More or less than the AR? Depends on the situation.

They are ill informed, probably by the media. They could've used a Glock pistol, w an extendo or three.
