| Glad you asked.....
semiautomatic rifles which accept a detachable magazine are classified as "assault weapons" if they have two of the five following features: folding stock, pistol grip, bayonet mount, grenade launcher, threaded barrel for flash suppressor. http://justfacts.com/gun_control.htm
But you can have the very same weapon without any of the above and it's okay...Boy the Ban that expired was a bunch of feel good.. :poop:

Lightwieght and high velocity has its place though, |

I doubt seriously that any critter shot with this thing would have much left to it, As for the assault weapon part, as I said before, any weapon used to assault another person is an assault weapon.... |

I heard that someplace. I guess it depends on the words: folding stock? bayonet stud? over ten rounds in the magazine? |
