    2A has been toothless for awhile. What good is stock modded AR15 supposed to do against tanks and fighters jets.

      To be fair, the fighting would be guerilla warfare which the us hasn’t been that great at dealing with.

      It’s still good enough to shoot people who accidentally step on your lawn, or the teachers and co-students you had a disagreement with.

      When a group of American freedom fighters go to take over a U.S.A. military base and hesitant soldiers aren’t sure if they should follow a traitorous president or their oath to the Constitution, the American freedom fighters being well-armed will make the difference.

      We could probably mount a pretty decent resistance with what we have available. look what happened in iraq during the occupation. insurgency would be the way to go in a rebellion against the us govt.

      And that’s why they didn’t bother with guns in Iraq. Defeating the Americans was hopeless; mission accomplished.
