BH,,what is the perception of this rifle Remington R15,,made by Bushmaster,,it is the exact same weapon,fires the exact same ammo,,and uses the exact same 20 and 30 round magazines,,it is just a different color???? 
So, the camo pattern makes a difference? Don't most military weapons these days come in camo patterns? Sounds logical to me.
A 20-30 round clip seems better suited for a target range but that's just my opinion.
My perceptions are obviously different from yours.
Thanks

that is NOT a military weapon. it is no different than a BAR or any other semi auto rifle.

Okay...this is way out of control IMO..
If you don't agree on weapons choice then that's good...Some people don't think bow hunting is ethical..It comes down to choice...right. As long as it is legal who cares what you choose to hunt with. I don't care if you use a spear...But I do care when you make a statement against my Second Amendment Rights regardless of weapons choice. Just because you don't like a military style weapon it does not make it illegal. I don't use a military style weapon...but who am I to tell someone they can't. Statements or comments like these is what has caused us to lose rights...And yes, I'm using my Freedom of Speech Right...

If this is referring to me, then please go back and point out where I posted anything about being illegal, or even where I said that no one should be allowed to hunt with this type of weapon.......or did someone simply "perceive" that was what I meant.
Just because I wouldn't buy such a weapon does not mean that you can not....
And......The part about the machine gun was simply a joke, since this weapon LOOKS like an automatic weapon that I only see in war movies.
Do I not have the right to my opinion?
let's all take a deep breath..........
thanks

No, its not at you but for those who seem they know all the answers. Again JMO on the subject. By the way YES you have a right to your opinion, by all means....I'm breathing...LOL!!
After retiring from the military I made a choice not to have to hold another military style weapon. To many bad memories if you know what I mean...So yes I see where you are coming from but I want give in on freedom of choice...What ever floats your boat...

Man started hunting and killing animals using a stick with a chiseled rock on the end of it.....The only thing that's changed is the way people think.
