Gene Hoffman, Co-Founder and Chairman of the Calguns Foundation, took to the air with CBS News yesterday to explain why semi-auto firearms are so popular amongst gun owners.
Speaking in particular about the AR-15, CBS noted that more than 3 million Americans now own one.
Gene added that it “is the most popular selling firearm [in America].” That is actually very important from a legal perspective since Heller tells us that the Second Amendment protects those firearms in “common use at the time” and the most popular firearm in America certainly meets that description.
