Rifles
Every American should own and be able to operate at least one rifle.
The rifle should be .223 caliber or larger, and should preferably be an
autoloader.
More than being your right as an American, this is your duty as an American.
After this one rifle, you are free to purchase and collect many of the
wonderful rifles available to you.
You should practice with your rifles to ensure that you can use them competently.
You should have a sufficient quantity of ammunition
on hand to be able to use your rifles effectively in a conflict.
