Original Note:
The NRA seems to consider "assault weapons" to only be automatic weapons. As there is no formal definition, this amounts to an opinion. https://www.nraila.org/the-truth-about-so-called-assault-weapons/ Various state and federal laws have defined what an "assault weapon" for the context of that particular law. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assault_weapon
