"Do you realize the bullet out of an AR-15 travels 5 times as rapidly as a bullet shot out of any other gun."

Hey, I want one of them things!!!!!!
Demented old fool, or perhaps just reading from the script put in front of him by his handlers who want to perpetuate fear among idiots who don’t know how to Google muzzle velocity of 5.56mm (3250 FPS with a 20″ barrel and 55 gr.) versus say, 300 Win Mag (3290 FPS with 150 gr.).

In the land of the witless, the half-wit is king.
This performance by Joe Biden reminds me why I absolutely loathe him: repugnant, “hey, tough guy!” demagoguery; a sui generis mix of incoherent, logorrheic, babbling ignorance and blatant, in-your-face lies about his biography, slanted history, bassackwards policy, and projection of it all onto his political opponents—which he treats as enemies while proclaiming his good nature; weird racialized stories and references that no one in the Democrat-media complex calls him on; and overall he’s just a big scumbag.
You know, if there were ARs that could generate such bullet speeds, the F-15s wouldn’t be a problem.
No lie

Well, you’d still have to lead them a LOT more than your average duck.
Just to put the numbers out there:
Top speed of an F-15A = 1,650mph
Top speed of an F35 = 1.141mph
Actual muzzle velocity converted to mph = 2,215mph
Claimed muzzle velocity converted = 11,080mph
Those hypersonic missiles you keep hearing about? 3,806mph
At least its not a 9mm. Those will blow the lungs clean out of the body!
love his (attempted) pronunciation of ‘rapidly’
OH MY! Gotta git me one of dem!
16,000 fps? Probably 1 shot, no barrel left to worry about. And, most likely, no shoulder left to hold the rifle against, due to the bolt going through the shoulder.
Bullets going faster than a speeding bullet. Superman is in trouble.
