Never said I wanted to see AR's or any other rifle banned. I shoot AK's myself. I just said I don't really see the need for them in hunting season. It seems to send the wrong message. Like waging war on the game animals or something. It's just a perception, granted, but perception is quite often reality. Someday I might like to find out how well a 7.62X39 works on deer, just not in an AK or SK.
