I normally don't get involved in these discussions, but I think some people take too much from our media and lawmakers. So which one of these is an "assault weapon"?



Most folks will answer the one on the bottom. My question is why??

Hate to break this to ya, but they are the exact same firearm; are the same length, utilize the same ammunition, and both have detachable magazines. So is it because the one on the bottom is all blacked out, has a bunch of additional doo-dads attached to it and generally scares us that makes it an assault weapon?

My point is most say,

So that would mean the bottom choice by most peoples (and the media/lawmakers) definition. But by my example I could just go to my local sporting goods store and purchase the top rifle and do the same amount of damage. Where is the line drawn?
