Actually an AR-15 is my preferred rifle for deer hunting. It's lightweight, has a low caliber bullet (.223), and is very accurate within 200 yards. I normally use a 5-round clip when I go Mule Deer hunting. When trying to take down a 230 lb. deer, I've had to sometimes take more than one shot at it. With my AR-15, I can squeeze off three rounds for every one a Bolt Action gun can shoot. The AR-15 is also very easy to maintain, and parts are readily available for it.
However, on the con side, this rifle can be used as an assault weapon as well. The lower receiver can be modified so that the gun can be used as a 'fully automatic' weapon. Install a 50-round clip, and it can be emptied in less than 10 seconds. Amazing to see what it can do to an old abandoned car in a field.
You can bump fire this weapon on any weapon to simulate a fully -auto weapon with little practice. Just do a search on UTube "BUMPFIRE"
oh and as far as the OP question ,Yes Obama/Biden want to make the AWB permanent.
