"battlefield weapons like the AR-15" The AR-15 is only popular among enthusiasts because it is basically a Lego set of the firearm world. Historically every style of weapon that gun owners have has been used extensively on the battlefield.

Attempting to ban a weapon on certain visual features or other features that do not affect its firing operation are meaningless.
