I don't have one.  They can be useful hunting rifles and modifiability is a plus.  And they could be a useful home defense weapon.  They also are somewhat fun and inexpensive to shoot targets.

And of course they are very very rarely used in the commission of crimes.  The focus on them because of criminal behaviors is rather odd to me.  They are no more deadly that rifles like a Ruger Mini-14 with a wooden stock.

Don’t need one. Don’t have one. Not a gun guy. But if I wanted one it is my right.

I voted that I don't need one, because I don't need one but I have one anyway was not an option.

IMHO, and I could be wrong, all the focus on assault rifles is ignorance in action.

The armed forces all employ assault rifles, the real ones.

the real fear to gun owners is that if we gave in and AR-15s were banned do you think the left would stop there

nope they would still want to take all guns away

You can vote for 3 options, btw.
Longhorn, I suppose their being fun to shoot would fall under "it is my right".
