by I came across an editorial in the National Review from June 14th. While I’m a little behind times as we have family visiting, the editors of the National Review said we don’t need a new assault weapons (sic) ban. You can read the whole editorial here.
However, what caught my eye was this characterization of the AR-15:
An “assault weapon” is the Sicilian widow of the firearms world: a little scary-looking and all dressed in black.
I love it! This can lead to a whole plethora of names for new AR builds. The old style one could be named Mrs. Corleone. A more modern one could be Francesca or Isabella or Carmella or Elena. The possibilities are endless.
No word, though, on whether an AR-15 can pull off the malocchio or evil eye.
Gotta save The Evil-Eye for the Aimpoint!
