False gun info that refuses to die!

[ECS686]

So this popped up and I thought 3 minutes how bad could it be???….its that bad! Lady needs to do some research on the topic of effectiveness and bit listen to what some 60 year old hangout customer that thinks he’s got game with her says!!!

Her saying .223 was designed to injure reminded me of the American 180. 22lr bullet hose used to disperse large groups of people in a "less than lethal" way.

Not that the media knows the difference between an expert and idiot.

Good thing she has a store of decent employees working under her or that store'd be in trouble.

Case and point that the venn diagram of enthusiasts/experts and salesmen or managers only minimally overlaps.

Huh, they better cancel the service rifle matches…

Never heard of a round designed solely to wound. The idea that a standing military (or all western/nato countries in this instance) would adopt such a cartridge is a real head scratcher at best, and I’m being generous. You know what WAS designed to have a singular purpose? A Military. That purpose was to KILL the enemy.

This takes the cake of asinine, uninformed opinions in a week thoroughly riddled with such. And she’s running the front counter.

I’m thinking she is the owners Daughter (of maybe side item) OR part of that whole Dunning-Kruger effect either on her own or she’s listening to some of the idiots that want to hang out and try and talk their BS in gun shops!

First class fidiot but people believe because she "sounds" knowledgeable. As a wise man once said. The difference in a genius and and idiot is that idiocy has no limits.

1. How did I ever qualify with open sights at 300 meters ?
2. The 5.56 does kill and can create massive wounds.
3. Do FUDDS do anything but hang out in gun stores ?
4. How is it possible for me to hit 300 yard targets with an Eo Tech ?

 

[kawtech87]

Fudds are experts in fudd lore. Are we surprised?

 

[loudgroove]

Didn't the dems say that the .223/5.56 will completely blow up a human body and thus should be band from the public? Now this girl says it will only injure! Who to believe? lol

Blow lungs out....
and I think it was only if military style fully automatic AR 9mm clips were used...

She's one of the most uneducated people working behind a gun counter that I've ever heard. I turned that video off when she said 50 yds.
It's probably the store owners daughter.

 

[Scott58]

Could have been worse I guess, but why add the extra bs? Even my old eyes can pull decent groups with my AR that has open sights. Granted the one I have with an optic is easier, but not mandatory.

Everyone behind the counter at an automotive parts store are master mechanics too!

Big difference between a 6 speed automatic transmission and the operation of an AR-15.

Absolutely that's somebody's relation. She buys advertising space and updates their facebook page.

While not relevant to the 5.56mm, I can assure you that we also have weapons designed to wound. The goal is enemy force degradation. Obviously killing someone degrades the unit's combat effectiveness, but so does a serious injury...which also ties up more personnel and logistic channels.

M-14 mines are a great example. Small charge by design, meant to mangle/amputate a foot but not lethally. Now you've got a soldier who can't walk unaided, is a drag on his unit, and is a burden on morale. I was never nervous around big charges. If you accidentally touch off a 40 lb cratering charge you'll never know you did it. The M-14, though, less than 3 lbs of pressure to touch it off and you'll live a long time to regret your error.

1. I’ll guess MVA. And a DI marking time.
2. Yes it can, you will have to define massive, let’s compare it to a 60 cal. Or even a 30-06. M1A1.
3. Yes.
4. Don’t even know what an EO TECH is.
