Zusha Elinson is an award-winning national reporter for the Wall Street Journal. He’s also the author of a brand new book out now: “American Gun: The True Story of the AR-15.”
Zusha’s book is a comprehensive deep dive into the history of the AR-15. Using thousands of pages of documents and records, it tells a detailed, fact-based story about a gun that has undeniably played a major role in American society over the past 50 years.
Nick Lien had a chance to speak with Zusha about the AR-15’s humble origins, the disaster surrounding the gun during the Vietnam war, and its role in our modern society.
