This tweet went viral on the Twitterz yesterday evening, and there was much pointage, laughery, and mockification directed at CBS—
I was left wondering what the reporter thought was an “assault revolver” and if I owned anything that might qualify. The revolver in my gun locker that probably comes closest to fitting the bill is my grandfather’s old H&R Sentinel. It’s a .22 with a 9-round cylinder.
It’s a reasonable plinker, the sort of gun that old men carried in their tackle boxes when I was a kid. These days, it’s obsolete and being replaced by 10-shot .22 revolvers made of stainless steel.
AR-15s are also .22 caliber. That may be what confused the reporter.
LOL So would my daughter’s 1911 qualify?
That would probably be considered an “assault pistol”.
Can an assault revolver take a chainsaw bayonet attachment? I bet it has a pistol grip…
My chain saw is full auto. It runs as long as the trigger is pulled and there’s fuel in the tank.
My M9 22lr is 15 rounds, but not sure that qualifies as “assault” or “High capacity.”

Now, either that “reporter” is dumber than a sack off poo, and knows nothing about guns, or someone dumber than them, told them what the gun was.
I thought an AR-15 was configurable?
To give credit to his silliness, he could have been thinking of this
