Original Note:
Assault weapon is a fabricated political term based solely on esthetics of a particular weapon and has nothing to do with functionality. The weapons the president refers to are simply semiautomatic rifles as are 90% of weapons used for hunting and sport shooting. https://www.atf.gov/firearms/firearms-guide-identification-firearms-within-purview-national-firearms-act
