Let’s Stop Calling Them Rifles

I know what a rifle looks like.  I learned to shoot a bolt action 22 caliber rifle at summer camp.  My father had the rifle he carried in India in World War II.  The Sig Sauer SIG MCX used in the Orlando massacre is NOT a rifle.sig_sauer_mcx_carbine

Just in case you don’t agree, ask Sig Sauer.  Go to the manufacturer’s website and look at the brochure for the SIG MCX. (http://www.sigevolution.com/_includes/SIG-MCX-Brochure.pdf).  The tag line in capital letters, “THE FIRST TRUE MISSION-ADAPTABLE WEAPON SYSTEM.”

What else does Sig Sauer tell us about this product.  “The SIG MCX eclipses everything that has come before it.”  It sure does.  It set a record for the number of deaths in a single mass murder using an assault weapon.

Don’t want to waste your time looking at the details of this killing machine.  Just go to their home page.  At the top is reads, “SIG SAUER…when it counts.”  This time the count was 49.

For what it’s worth.
