How Does A Snowflake Answer The Question:"What Is An Assault Weapon" ??

the leftist dream of what an assault weapon is; Any tool that can be used to cut.


after our guns are gone, they will come after the rest.
 
There is, in popular parlance, the term 'assault weapon'. In generic terms, an assault weapon is a weapon that includes a semi-automatic firing system fed by a high capacity ammunition magazine. There are distinct guns designed for sporting purposes. Among these are hunting rifles (bolt and lever action), pump action shot guns designed to hunt water fowl or shoot clay pigeons, and pistols and revolvers designed for target shooting and self defense.

Assault weapons, on the other hand, have design characteristics more akin to combat weapons. Characteristics that do not necessarily augment their use in sporting activities.

You wanted a definition, you got one.

Now, I know your reputation. You will no doubt respond with a smiley emoticon denoting you think this post is funny. If you want to discuss the merits and virtues of the weapons I described as 'assault weapons', fine. But if all you seek are posts you can ridicule as poorly framed, inarticulate or just plain silly, you might find that some opinions that differ from your own still have merit.

I have no doubt as to where you got that definition:

Actually the definition of an Assault weapon is that it is equipped with a selector switch to allow Burst or automatic fire and those are already HEAVILY regulated.

The M-16 and M-4 no longer have a full auto setting. It has a single shot and a 3 shot burst. Most of the time, it's used in a single shot mode. It saves ammo and is more accurate in single shot mode. And it's very fast and deadly. In normal use, there really isn't any difference between a civilian AR-15 and a M-16. Both should be considered Assault Rifles.

BTW, the one that claimed that the Military rejected the AR-15, that was incorrect. The original AR-15 was done on a USAF contract and was accepted. It was introduced as the M-16. USAF bought the colt provided ammo and cleaning kits and had little trouble with it. The Army later adopted it but provided their own reloads from some old gun powder they already had and didn't buy as many cleaning kits. The army experienced jamming until they learned to clean the damned thing on a daily basis and got the cleaning kits in enough quantity into the field. And they stopped using the crap gun powder.

Why do you NaziCon retards keep asking the same stupid question? It has been clearly define previously as follows:

Federal Assault Weapons Ban

The Federal Assault Weapons Ban (AWB)—officially, the Public Safety and Recreational Firearms Use Protection Act—is a subsection of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994, a United States federal law that included a prohibition on the manufacture for civilian use of certain semi-automatic firearms it defined as assault weapons, as well as certain ammunition magazines it defined as "large capacity".

The ten-year ban was passed by the U.S. Congress on September 13, 1994, following a close 52–48 vote in the Senate, and signed into law by then President Bill Clinton the same day. The ban only applied to weapons manufactured after the date of the ban's enactment, and it expired on September 13, 2004, in accordance with its sunset provision.

Several constitutional challenges were filed against provisions of the ban, but all were rejected by reviewing courts. There were multiple attempts to renew the ban, but none succeeded.

And that ban was allowed to expire because it has no effect on crime or murder rates

The AR-15 was originally manufactured as a MILITARY weapon......Failing to interest our military into buying it, manufacturers turned their advertising on private ownership.......who buy the AR-15, supposedly, to protect themselves from the same military that rejected the weapon in the first place.........lol
The Ar 15 is nothing but a semiautomatic rifle that fires a 5.56 mm round

Just like my 5.56 mm rifle with a wood stock

There is no difference between my "ranch" rifle and the AR 15 "assault" rifle. NONE. ZERO. ZIP. NADA.

The 5.56 NATO round has been criticized for being under powered and it is compared to rounds used by the military in the past. Hell most people with more than one rifle have rifles that are far more powerful than the AR 15. I have 3 rifles that make the Ar 15 look like a bb gun.

The reason the AR 15 is so popular is not because it is the most deadly it is because it is light, accurate and easy to fire. That is all
 
Oh boy here come the gun nerds.

Ok , an assault weapon is a firearm designed for war. Designed to poke big holes in people as quickly as possible .
Then that leaves out the AR 15 because it fires one of the smallest caliber bullets on the market

if you are breaking in my house and I get to my Winchester Model 12 sawed off shotgun you can bet I'll assault you with it - your dead ass wont know the difference between a fully automatic AR 15 and a 5 shot pump scatter gun either.

And just how many people have ever tried breaking into your home? So if I was to enter your home with my AR 15 and blasted you before you got to your Winchester, then what?

But in reality a minuscule percentage of people commit crimes with an AR 15.
In fact rifles of any kind are used in about 2% of all murders. So regardless of what you think a rifle, any rifle, is not the weapon of choice for the vast majority of criminals

Except of course your "ranch rifle" has an internal magazine that only holds five or six rounds. It wouldn't have been very effective in the Vegas attack. Probaly why Paddock didn't choose it despite it being "No different".

Great. When it is used, it's devastating.
 
:abgg2q.jpg: I just saw the footage on Fox News as I was coming home. A reporter was sent to some anti-gun March, must of been a very blue state. He is asking a few of the young female protesters if they knew what an assault weapon is. But as expected, they had no clue!
They may as well answered, the real hard question like this.
So like, uh, what is an assault weapon? Uh, like, isn't that like a gun that shoots a lot of bullets?
Or maybe answer it like this?,,,uh,,like,,uhm,,uh?,,,so like, what's an assault weapon? Uh, is that like a gun made from salt?
