Analysis | What ‘arms’ looked like when the 2nd Amendment was written

preview

Correction:&nbsp;An earlier version of this story incorrectly identified one of the weapons involved in Sunday’s shooting in Orlando as an AR-15.&nbsp;Orlando Police officials first classified the weapon used in the rampage&nbsp;as an “AR-15-type assault rifle.” On Monday, officials said the weapon used was a Sig Sauer MCX. While in many ways similar to the AR-15 family of rifles, the MCX relies on a different gas system to operate and cannot be fairly classified as an AR-15. Both weapons can fire the same type of ammunition at roughly the same speeds and share a similar history.
