Original Note:
The definition of mass shooting varies from study to study. The term assault weapon is also difficult to define and most differences from other weapons are predominantly aesthetic in nature. It is not clear if there is a relationship between AW bans and mass shootings. https://www.rand.org/research/gun-policy/analysis/ban-assault-weapons/mass-shootings.html
