Rifles aren’t necessarily “slower to load,” are you speaking specifically of bolt-action rifles with this? It’s about the same amount of time and steps to load a magazine into an AR15 rifle as it is a semi-auto pistol. Unfortunately that also makes them effective in an unlawful mass shooting situation.
yeah but the rifle holds only a few rounds. so the time it takes per bullet is significantly longer for a rifle.
edit- have to delete this comment because I posted it under an organization's lemmy account by accident instead of my personal account. sorry bout that. I do not speak for the organization and any opinions I shared on this topic are my own and not theirs. (i just help post information about events for them).
