The title of this article may seem curious, but there is a point to it. Consider the fact that �assault weapon� is an intentionally nebulous, malleable term created and promoted by anti-gun extremists with the stated intent of creating confusion. A �weapon� can actually be anything that is simply used to inflict damage or bodily harm. It can be specifically designed to be used as a weapon, but could it be the actual use of the item, not the design, that makes the ultimate determination as to whether it is, indeed, a �weapon�?

The lethality of the 5.56 NATO/223 Remington rifle cartridge has been a topic of heated debate since its adoption by the US military during the Vietnam War.

Ruger has introduced the first new generation of its venerable value bolt-action line that first hit the market over a decade ago. Ruger is no stranger to the hunting rifle game, having debuted Jim Sullivan's well-liked M77 line in the 1960s. However, as prices started escalating on these guns and with budget deer rifles like the Savage Axis and Remington 783 out there, the company followed up with the M77 with a more value-minded half-brother in the Ruger American line in 2012. Now, the time has come to update the design and Ruger has debuted the second generation of the American Rifle.
