Go ahead...punk. Make Mrs. Tannehill's day.

A few days ago, a Reddit user posted the above picture of a rifle, claiming his friend had found it in the back seat of a rental car near the Fort Lauderdale, Fla., airport. Who could possibly have forgotten such a large and terrifying weapon in a rental car? Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill's wife, it turns out.

According to the Sun Sentinel, the AR-15 belongs to Lauren Tannehill, and is valued at $2,000. The gun is legally owned, and the Broward County Sheriff's office says Lauren simply forgot the gun when she swapped her original rental car for a different one. We've all been there.

But the question remains: Why the hell was Lauren Tannehill driving around with such a ridiculous gun? (One Reddit user helpfully identified all of the rifle's high-tech and expensive attachments). We'll probably never know, but at least we are all now aware that trying to carjack Lauren Tannehill would be a very bad idea.

Maybe she's a Mossad agent. After that Gong Show guy, it's not unreasonable to assume that anyone is a Mossad agent or assassin.


The more I think about it, she could be a great assassin. You bump into the victim, flirt with him, and invite him up to your hotel room. Boom. Next! We're talking a 100 percent success rate.

No, you didn't. The AR-15 was designed for and was originally used by our military. The fact that civilians also own them now doesn't change history. Therefore, it was and is a military-style weapon.

[listopencil]

[Donger]

Is it the color? Is that it? Does it look scary because it is green?

No. As I've already said, because it's lineage is military and to the best of my knowledge, the weapon in her trunk is virtually identical to the one used by our military.

A person would have to know what exactly her rifle is (Brand, caliber, etc.), what modifications have been performed, and then one would need to refer to the model you have selected and establish the differences.


That is of course, if you didn't want to solely compare the base model of her firearm, which is likely more applicable to the majority of civilians.

No, I didn't. All I said was that it was a military-style weapon. It is. You chose to ask me if I knew the differences between it and one issued to our military.

Subtle differences like muzzle velocity, barrel & overall length & weight, and effective firing distance are what differentiate. AR-15 and some similar weapons are banned in NY, but there are rifles such as the Ruger mini-14 and SR-556 which are ban compliant...

Completely different stock and barrel length, Mrs. Tannehill’s doesn’t have the carrying handle and the G.I.’s doesn’t have the trick optics or mounting for them.

[Radar Chief]

Not necessarily, AR’s can be bought in a variety of calibers up to and including .308.
Military M-16’s are 5.56mm NATO, or .223 cal.
Just looking at it I would assume it's a .223 though.

And I'm relatively sure that our military carries variations of the design.

It’s possible some special forces are carrying a tricked out AR similar to that into “Indian Country” but they actually have access to much more impressive hardware too, so…:shrug:

This list ought to cause a panic...

[Aspengc8]

Okay, those are subtle differences. Would you say those subtle variations make her weapon NOT a "military-style" weapon?

No. What makes her weapon not a military weapon is that it is not a selective fire weapon, like the M16. You can modify the AR15 to become an assault rifle, and then you go to jail. Compared to the M16.. very similar effective range, muzzle velocity.. uses the same cartridges .223/5.56. Both good weapons, just one can be fired automatically, and one cannot. :D

Both are standard military issue....

It's okay; you can say it: it was specifically designed for the US armed forces.

[Reerun_KC]

For whom was the Colt AR-15 developed?

Anyone who can afford to purchase one...

You can legally own a Colt AR, you can not legally own a Military style M16. Its illegal.

Two Major differences. 1) rate of fire 2) you can legally own one and not the other.

[Reerun_KC]

It's okay; you can say it: it was specifically designed for the US armed forces.

Agree, they both were designed for the armed forces. Yet I have both in my house legally...

Strange how that works. Ones a pistol for military use that I bought from Bass Pro and the other shotgun was for military use that I purchased at Gander mountain. Craziest thing about it all, I HUNT DUCKS WITH THE MILITARY STYLE SHOTGUN.... OMG!!!!

Both military style weapons as strange as it maybe...

[Donger]

Not necessarily, AR’s can be bought in a variety of calibers up to and including .308.
Military M-16’s are 5.56mm NATO, or .223 cal.
Just looking at it I would assume it's a .223 though.

Yep.

It’s possible some special forces are carrying a tricked out AR similar to that into “Indian Country” but they actually have access to much more impressive hardware too, so…:shrug:

Even during Vietnam. Colt Commando, for example.

You asked for the differences, I explained them and even posted pictures. You can thank me later.

I'll thank you now. Thank you.

[Donger]

All guns are military style. All knives are military style. All workboots are military style. Pants and shirts are military style, as are glasses, gloves, hats, buildings, lawns and flagpoles.

What is your point here?

No they aren't.

[Donger]

No. What makes her weapon not a military weapon is that it is not a selective fire weapon, like the M16. You can modify the AR15 to become an assault rifle, and then you go to jail. Compared to the M16.. very similar effective range, muzzle velocity.. uses the same cartridges .223/5.56. Both good weapons, just one can be fired automatically, and one cannot. :D

Some people have very quick fingers. See this thread for examples.

So what is the difference between the Beretta M9 and the Colt AR-15?

[Donger]

I don't see that the Remington 870 was designed specifically for the military.

You guys are ruining a perfectly good fantasy. Well done.

This.

[Donger]

So what is the difference between the Beretta M9 and the Colt AR-15?

You mean besides that fact that one is a side arm and one is a rifle? Besides accuracy, range and so on?

Not much. They both go bang.

You tell me; why don't our troops just carry the side arm?

[Aspengc8]

So what is the difference between the Beretta M9 and the Colt AR-15?

length, weight, magazine & cartridge size, muzzle velocity, firing range... just a few of the obvious. Unless I missed the sarcasm in your question.

[Reerun_KC]

I don't see that the Remington 870 was designed specifically for the military.

Sorry buddy design doesn't matter if the military uses it its a "Military style weapon"

We cant split hairs here...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_individual_weapons_of_the_U.S._Armed_Forces

Shows the 870 here

The Remington Model 870 is a pump-action shotgun (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump-action_shotgun) manufactured by Remington Arms Company, LLC. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Arms) It is widely used by the public for sport shooting, hunting, and self-defense. It is also commonly used by law enforcement and military organizations worldwide.

So by your standards.......... its a world wide issue with the 870 being used by civilians....

The Beretta (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beretta) M9, officially the Pistol, Semiautomatic, 9mm, M9, is a 9×19mm Parabellum (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9%C3%9719mm_Parabellum) pistol adopted by the United States Armed Forces (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Armed_Forces) in 1985. It is essentially a military specification Beretta 92F (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beretta_92), later known as the 92FS.

I think his point is that because both are military adaptations of civilian weapons designed for civilian use, by your definition this would make them “civilian style weapons”.

Point is, if we want to split hairs on what he weapon was designed for, then we have to take into count all the other weapons the military use.

Because my hunting shotgun is a military style killing machine according to your argument.

[kepp]

Some people have very quick fingers. See this thread for examples.

Finger speed will only make a rifle fire so fast. There is an inherent maximum fire rate in every semi-auto weapon due design. For instance, some SMGs (like the P90) have very fast fire rate because of their design and the type of ammo used. They have stiffer recoil springs for faster cycling, shorter actions, and use +p ammo that creates stronger blow back. My guess would be that a military issued M16 would have some of these internal differences from a standard AR15.

Non,nom,nom

[nstygma]

No, you didn't. The AR-15 was designed for and was originally used by our military. The fact that civilians also own them now doesn't change history. Therefore, it was and is a military-style weapon.

false. the M-16 was designed for and used by the military, not the AR-15.

[Donger]

false. the M-16 was designed for and used by the military, not the AR-15.

Wrong.

[nstygma]

Three round burst versus semi-auto, right? Small detail, IMO.false. there is no 3-round burst on the AR-15.

[kepp]

Wrong.

How is he wrong?

[Donger]

How is he wrong?

ArmaLite produced the AR-15 for the Army. Colt then took it over and with a few changes, it became the M-16.

They designed it. The army didn't adopt it until the Colt M16 redesign.

ArmaLite produced the AR-15 for the Army. Colt then took it over and with a few changes, it became the M-16.so you're saying the ar-15 was designed for but never used by the military?

so you're saying the ar-15 was designed for but never used by the military?

Correct. My language was sloppy in the post where I stated that the AR-15 was used by the military. Apologies. But, the AR-15 was most definitely designed for military usage.

[nstygma]

Correct. My language was sloppy in the post where I stated that the AR-15 was used by the military. Apologies.

Apparently the original ar-15 was hated by the Military and Armalite failed as a company before licensing it to Colt.

Yes, and that changes nothing with regard to the AR-15 being designed specifically for the military. It was, and that is why I told you you were wrong.

Look at all these military style .22 caliber rifles.

Buddy of mine bought his 10 year old son an AR15 .22 caliber for Christmas.

Military "style" does not mean military grade.

[kepp]

Actually, the AR-15 trademark was purchased by Colt, which then redesigned the original rifle into the M16. Colt then reused the AR-15 name for the rifle they designed for civilian use.

They designed AN AR-15 for military use. It is not the AR-15 that is available to civilians today. The AR-15 that is available today was designed for civilians by Colt.

Armalite designed the ar-15 in hopes that the military would like it; instead, they "detested" it. It was not designed and made "for" the military. they did not commission it.
