Does that bother you?

It bothers me. Go train with your gun.
It's not like it's a $50 impulse buy, is it.
A mate of mine's kid is 16, he's got an after-school job and has been saving for a VR headset for months. Now has enough to buy it, but he's putting it off because he's realised that he's now got enough money to think about saving for a car.
His folks are proud of him.
If he'd been working away for months so that he can buy that awesome AR-15 that's so fucking badass - that would be cause for serious concern here. That he's a teenager, he's got months of savings for his job, and he doesn't want to buy a videogame system or a cheap car or a motorbike or a holiday with his friends........ his first priority is getting a fucking assault rifle, just like the one all the famous killers used.
That so many Americans look at that and think "well that's normal, he's a good well adjusted kid" - and the overwhelming likelihood is that he IS, he's not a danger to anybody, and he's somehow still been programmed by the gun culture that the #1 thing he wants for his 18th birthday is a fucking assault rifle. That will effectively be a $1200 paperweight that he will virtually never actually use for anything, but that is still his #1 priority for his first significant purchase, because having it sitting in his closet doing nothing will make him feel badass and powerful and cool. And that's normal for a well-adjusted kid. Absolutely bizarre.

Because it's an assault weapon and not an assault rifle, your whole post is invalid.
Not talking to you mistermac. I'm talking to the triggered guys now.
I do train, except with two which are very old and considered an investment/antique at this point.
I like to go to the range here, sometimes when I'm finished I rent one of the machine guns for a few rounds.
Shot the M249 once or twice, buck a round.
I have video of it, but won't post here.
They have 20 full autos or more.
I am all for people training.

I think the shittiest version is like $1500.
I've tried to tell guntards they don't need AR-15s before and they just tell me about some landowner somewhere who had a big problem with feral hogs.
No sense in asking them what the fuck that even means.
Assault weapon is a made up term. In Canada break action rifles can fall under that category.

Can buy them 500 all day.
Apparently the uvalde shooter used a really nice brand called Daniel defense. This is a high quality rifle. Depends on the model but could easily be 1500 to 2,000 normally. Would not shock me that he paid $500 more due to shortages. The brand is in high demand and regularly goes for more than MSRP.
plus a 600+ dollar optic I believe
I would like to know the payment details regardless of their relevance
He's very aware they don't start at $1500. People seem to forget when he panic bought a gun at the beginning of the pandemic.
Most people buy a Sparc red dot for like $100.
Edit: I thought you were referring to the "$600 rifle" part I have no idea what the shooter was using. It's too had DD is getting wrapped up in this. They're a business of good people.

I mean, if we want to act like jetboat owners, sure.
I assumed it was an eotech
Not sure
*Thor has entered the chat*
This kid had some cash but also, Eotech. Pfft.
That’s what I said.
Now sling the term ‘well adjusted kid’ around a few times.
Your rudeness and foul language would be a ‘red flag’ here, not buying an AR 15 at age 18.
