AR-15s  

A Brief History of Time

Born in Gosport Indiana, in 1922, Stoner attended high school in Long Beach, California, before working at the Vega Aircraft Company installing armament. During World War II Stoner enrolled in the United States Marine Corps, specializing in Aviation Ordnance. He served in Northern China and the South Pacific.

In 1954, he worked as the chief engineer for ArmaLite, then a division of Fairchild Engine and Airplane Corporation. His first projects were forerunners of the AR-15, with creative names like AR-3, AR-9, AR-11 and AR-12. These were all prototype small arms that never saw production. He did, however, see success with the AR-5, which was used as a survival rifle by the United States Air Force.

In 1956, ArmaLite designed a lightweight selective fire rifle for military use and designated it the ArmaLite Rifle model 15, or AR-15

ArmaLite sold the patent and trademarks to Colt’s Manufacturing Company in 1959. After Colt’s patents expired in 1977, Colt retained the trademark and is the exclusive owner of “AR-15” designation.

Now dozens of companies make AR-15 type rifles and their component parts. 

 

Generally AR-15s are considered a light weight semi-automatic rifles chambered in intermediate  calibres. The AR15 design was based on the US Army’s requirement to use 223 Remington (later 5.56mm NATO) ammunition. Stoner’s original prototypes were scaled-down AR-10s that had been designed around 308 Wincester (7.62x51mm NATO)

Canadian Gun Laws

Any AR15 or derivative is considered restricted by name in Canada’s Firearms laws. Meaning you need a restricted license, and it can only be used at government approved ranges. You can however have as many styles and variants as you want, from short barrelled “pistol” ARs to 20″ HBAR National Match rifles, to pistol calibre carbines, to 6.5mm projectile hurling rifles.  Fully Automatic AR15s are prohibited by Orders In Council.
