minus-squareArchRecord@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down1·2 months agoIt’s an entirely innocuous statement. What are they supposed to say instead? “15 Assault Rifle” or “Assault Rifle 15” just makes no sense. “AR-15” isn’t understood by all people to mean an assault rifle, since not everyone knows gun names. “Assault Rifle” doesn’t tell people which kind of assault rifle it is, since the AR in AR-15 stands for ArmaLite. It’s a statement that gives the most possible context to the reader about: What design of assault rifle it is What type of gun it is in general While also allowing readers to then learn the definition of the sole term “AR-15” over time
