Welcome to another T-Rx talk. Tonight we're going to be talking about the why everyone needs an AR-15

YouTube video that we posted 10 or 11 days ago. I wanted to talk a little bit more about that video,

ar-15 is somehow uniquely

classified as a weapon of war. And then other weapons of war from the past are classified as

sporting arms. So talking about that idea and then specifically going into the firearm

features themselves that the assault weapons band of 2022 wants to address,
