The enrichment activity that I would choose would be Assault Rifle shooting. I really enjoy shooting guns and I it is good to know how. If you know how to shoot a gun then you will be able to, defend yourself, take enjoyment out of shooting, and be able to feed yourself. There are also many ways that it could academically contribute, like the mechanics of the firing mechanism. You could also talk about the environmental effects a shot. Being able to shoot will help you defend yourself because you will know how to shoot. If you are an accurate enough shot and are in the military and you start to get attacked then you can defend yourself. You can also take lots of enjoyment from shooting. When shooting a weapon it is a way to only focus on you…

“The mouse that roared” was the label placed on the legendary M16 as it claimed responsibility for utterly destroying hundreds of thousands of North Vietnamese militants and fighters (Parsons). The M16 was and currently is an assault rifle that was developed by an American engineer named Eugene Stoner (Morgan). The development of the M16 was significant due to the revolutionary design and accuracy that saved many Americans their lives. Even though the M16 is still the weapon of choice today…
Why should assault rifles be banned? why should assault rifles be banned. They are made to get more rounds off at a time. They are not the cause of all murders they are also used to do sport shooting. Assault rifles should not be banned because they are used for sport shooting and are used to show off. In my opinion i don't think they should because they're used for more than just killing and murders and war. Nationally assault weapons were used in 1.4 percent of crimes…
Two of the most iconic rifles of all time are the AR-15 and the AK-47. America has used some variant of the AR-15 ever since the Vietnam War. The AK-47 has become known as a “bad guy gun,” due to the fact many terrorists and gangs use these rifles commonly. Many people believe that AR is the abbreviation of Assault Rifle. However, AR is actually the abbreviation of Armalite Rifle and the 15 in AR-15 stands for model 15. The AR-15 was designed by Eugene Stoner in 1957. AK-47 is short for Avtomat…
PERSONAL OWNERSHIP OF ASSAULT WEAPONS BE BANNED? Do you own a personal Rifle?. I feel that personal rifles should be banned by the government and no longer be sold to anyone. Personal ownership of assault weapons can be dangerous when placed in the wrong hands. They should also be banned because it’s increases day by day spreading like a disease across the world. Crime rates are increasing rather decreasing due to the spread of personal assault weapons. Firstly, personal assault…
The History and Evolution of the M-16 “This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My rifle is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life”. Written by Maj. Gen. W. H. Rupertus (“Marine Corps Creed”). The soldier cares for his own rifle deeply. Even though there are so many rifles just like that one, his rifle is his very own, like his child. The M-16, also known as the “Black Rifle,” has had a major impact in recent American history. It…
On December second, 2015, two heavily armed terrorists, one male one female, entered the San Bernardino Inland Regional Center and in a matter of minutes, they left 14 dead and 22 seriously injured. They used two semi automatic assault rifles (chambered in .223, a popular hunting round) and two 9mm handguns. This event and countless others mass shootings are the more recent events stirring up the gun control debate. "So obviously, we need strong sensible gun control, and I will support it, but…
the government’s radar. The true problem is who the government allows selling these guns. Even though there are a policy and process on buying guns, pawn shops sell these guns to anyone who has the cash. “As 2016 rolls to an end, there are no federal laws that ban semiautomatic assault weapons, military-style .50 caliber rifles, or large capacity ammunition clips, which leads to the possible lethality a firearm has increasing” (Masters). Even though the federal government prohibited assault…
there were just five cows left. It was the early 1990s (he can’t be sure of the year) and Lekoloi was in his early teens (he’s not sure of his age either) when he decided something had to change. Selling the last of his father’s cattle for 30,000 shillings (roughly $500 at the time), Lekoloi bought an AK-47 assault rifle and 60 bullets in two curved magazines from a gun trader who tapped the flow of small arms washing through the remote border areas of Somalia, Ethiopia, South Sudan, Kenya, and…
