Pic related, a "Squad Assault Weapon" employed by the US military. It's effectively an assault rifle on crack for when you need more assault and less rifle.
You can donate the money to a local animal shelter or get it in pennies and livestream yourself putting them all inside your body.

Literally just a scary name that Califags have given to scary looking guns.

IIRC the technical specs are if it is a centerfire, semiautomatic rifle with one of the following: collapsible stock, pistol grip, forward grip, or flash hider.

You'll underage b& don't remember the real AWB fucking shits.

>>34531568
any weapon that looks scary and can go BOOOM BOOM BOOM really quick

That's my go-to argument with grabbers.

If they can give me both the technical definition of "assault rifle" and the legal definition of "assault weapon", i know that they are capable of understanding and are most likely open to discussion and persuasion.

If they can't, and, more importantly, don't WANT to know the difference, I know it's a lost cause and I keep my mouth shut.

>tfw my wife was in the former camp before i converted her, while her sisters are staunchly in the latter. Family get togethers are "colorful"

Le wrongo. If this is bait heres your (you) faggot

>>34531668
That's what FN Hertsal named her. Amerilards changed it to Squad Automatic Weapon and later their own production models were called Light Machine Gun but that's not her real name.

I fucking hate new york

>>34531696
that's really racist and antisemetic.

That was not specified, But one would assume that's where anon would start because he's a flaming homosexual.

a reloadable rocket munition launcher, usually shoulder-fired, capable of firing anti-armor, anti-personnel, or bunker-busting rockets?

A weapon you use to assault. I would prefer a select fire intermediate carbine length rifle that fires an intermediate cartridge.

I hate the term because it gives a definition to an item before it has been used. It could be a defensive weapon or a collectible weapon.

Assualt rifle to me is like saying murder knife

>>34532718
That is the intent.
we also sell hunting knives and hunting rifles that will never be used for hunting.

The first state to enact an AWB was California in 1989.

The trips of the devil have provided you great insight.

>Assault rifle
Literally a word-by-word translation of the German term Sturmgewehr (pictured: StG 44, the FIRST of these weapons); Sturm also means Storm in German and in both translations refers to the STORMING of things, such as bunkers or cities or houses, which is achieved by using an Intermediate cartridge that can achieve effective kills both in medium-to-long range as well as short range, hereby filling the gapthat the Germans experienced to exist between the capabilities of the MP40 and the Kar98.

All other Assault Rifles descend from this gap-filler role, which was further refined by rendering the Intermediate cartridge down from its previous size (7-8mm) down to the modern, even smaller one (5-6mm). Assault Rifle (or more accurately, Storming Rifle) is a legitimate term as a result.

Assault gun on the other hand is also a legitimate term when describing a heavily armored vehicle carrying an artillery piece, used in assaults on well-defended positions to batter them with direct line of sight artillery fire.

Assault weapon is likely a criminologists' term. I have never heard it in military parlance.
