Here is a little project for you. Find me any statistic or study that shows an AR-15 as being in the top 10 of types of guns used to commit a crime or homicide within our country.
A little hint, you will not be able to do this. Most gun crimes in our country happen using PISTOLS, and ALL gun crimes in our country are caused by CRIMINALS, not law abiding citizens.
In fact from from 1993 to 2005 the most popular type of guns and caliber are as follows:
