Irish radio host Sean Moncrieff, on Dublin's Newstalk, interviewed Zusha Elinson, coauthor of American Gun: The True Story of the AR-15, about the gun following the attempt to assassinate Donald Trump. Excellent interview. The AR-15 and ArmaLite rifles were a part of the violence in Northern Ireland during "the Troubles." The gun became a part of the culture of the UK and Ireland, even making its way into pop songs, such as this, and this and this.
