Didn't you see his username "RichUK"? He isn't trolling... he's literally asking since the UK is all "Guns are bad, mmmkay."
Thats a pretty weak troll.
You should try more of the "think of the children" type stuff. It works better.
On a serious note, though, is an AR15 really necessary for the average Joe?
Yes, very necessary. Haven't your heard about all the people who die at birth because they don't have an AR15?
I think you mean to ask, is it too much weaponry for a citizen and the answer is no. At it's core it's just a semi-auto rifle. There's more powerful by considerable margins, they just aren't called "assault" weapons.
Perhaps you're missing my point - why would military weapons be of any real use to civilians?
A medium power rifle with short to mid range accuracy with highly industrialized looks due to military colors, contours, and polymer parts makes the AR15 any worse than any other rifle how? There really is no difference between a 5.56 rifle with a wooden stock that looks like a m1 garand or your standard AR15 rifle beyond looks and feel when handling. Now if the AR15 platform gun has a fire select switch or a full auto option... yah that is not exactly something needed for hunting. But just because a weapon "looks scary" doesn't mean it is any more lethal than any other rifle citizens can legally purchase.

Makes sense - I was struggling to see why an automatic rifle would be of any use, but as you say, it isn't auto.
Obligatory:Assault Rifles are military rifles with selective fire capability with either burst or full auto fire or both. These are not the "Assault Weapons" being spoken of in the media. These are heavily controlled and are pretty much never used in crimes or found on the street.
Assault Weapon is an invented term to describe a scary looking, but otherwise ordinary, semi-auto rifle.
There is really no such thing as an Assault Weapon. It is a term arbitrarily assigned to scary looking rifles.

Was just at the local DSG B&M. They have a rather large-ish sign behind the checkout counters that states basically we can cancel pre-orders for any reason. Would have taken pic but phone is dead.
Happy holidays.

Show us one for the same price.It's a big box store that doesn't give a shit about anyone. Take your refund with a $100 bonus and move on with your life. There are plenty of other places where you can get this. Try a smaller local shop.
Seems fairly likely they put that up BECAUSE of this debacle.

Doubtful. I've seen it in another DSG that I haven't been to in over a year at least. Best Buy has a similar billboard thing over most of their PC fix-it station things as well.
Good luck with that. A bare bones bottom brand AR is going for double what the OP paid. For a comparable rifle your going to be $2k easy in this climate.
Wait a year or so until all of the neocon idiots have blown their money and suppliers continue to make more.
Yeah, that's breach of contract. They COULD deliver the goods, but CHOOSE not to even after the purchase order was executed.
You can't do that. Hope the litigation goes as it should. For Troy, I'm sure Walmart would be happy to sell their product that DSG promised to sell.
