Based on you many anti AR posts I assume that you are implying that if there were no AR's there would be no mass "shootings"? But, I must say that https://www.thetrace.org/2023/07/mass-shooting-type-of-gun-used-data/ Concealable handguns have been involved in a majority of mass attacks for decades https://nij.ojp.gov/topics/articles/public-mass-shootings-database-amasses-details-half-century-us-mass-shootings Notably, most individuals who engaged in mass shootings used handguns (77.2%), and 25.1% used assault rifles in the commission of their crimes. -- Cheers, John B.
