- Gibbon1 6y agoYou spouting politically motivated revisionism here. You can do that but I'm not signing up.
- lliamander 6y agoThe terms I am using are defined pretty clearly on Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assault_rifle https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assault_rifle https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbine https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbine You may be confusing "assault rifle" and "assault weapon" which are different categories. The AR15 does usually qualify as an "assault weapon". The definition of assault weapon is looser, and includes a number of features (such as barrel shrouds and flash suppressors") the sole purpose of which is to make the gun safer to use, and have nothing to do with making them actually more dangerous. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assault_weapon https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assault_weapon If you have different sources, feel free so share.
