Hunting is not the only criteria by which a rifle should be judged.

I had a Colt neutered post-ban 9mm AR15 many years ago, and initially thought as you did. But let me tell ya something, a 9mm carbine sure is a lot of fun to murder tin cans with. Would like to get another. Been hoping S&W would make a Sport II 9mm, but so far crickets.
