Sorry if this is a dumb question but I figured the newbie forum would be the best place to post it!
I've seen people write stuff about "black" rifles or "green" rifles...can someone tell me what this means?

= Guns that scare Soccer moms & Liberals therefore must be classed as Restricted. They're only good for mowing down vast columns of nuns holding babies.
Scary stuff...

It means so called tactical or assault type rifles such as AR-15s - typically but not exclusively restricted long rifles.
In a sense it is unfortunate that there is this separate division in the forums since it perpetuates the myth that there is something fundamentally "different" about these types of firearms when really they are mere cosmetic differences in many cases. This only affirms the government's decision to restrict and prohibit rifles based on their appearance.
A black or green rifle is in many cases precisely that: a rifle that appears black or green!

ok, that's kinda what I thought they meant but wasn't sure...
what if you have a pink AR15, does that count? :D
It's been done! Seems to me you'd have a genuine poodle shooter with one of those though.. :DOriginally Posted by wherermykeys
They are looked on with more fear , by the soccer moms and hoplophobs, because they look like a toy and we can't have toy guns now , can we.
Lots of guys across the border like them pink ones for their daughters.Unfortunately, I only have a niece and she's into girlie things and not stuff like shooting...

hang on, you can actually buy a pink AR???
why of course,we don't want to be discriminatory do we?
Always seemed weird that the AR-10T, Remington 750, and M14S/M305 wouldn't share the same forum.
Also it seems that if new posters are going to be jumped on for referring to guns as 'assault rifles' or 'SMGs', then perhaps the subforum description should be changed to something other than:
"Black and Green Rifles
Assault rifles and SMGs for people with good taste."
