You’re confusing “assault weapon” with “assault rifle”. Different beasts.

In the hands of criminals (and rogue governments), they're assault weapons. In the hands of law abiding citizens, they're defense weapons.

He gave a definition for assault rifle. Assault Weapon seems to mean whichever guns the libs are trying to ban, this year. They aren't all rifles/carbines, some are shotguns.

He did make one error. Guns such as the Bushmaster in quesion are not "made to look like battle rifles", a battle rifle fires a full power catridge, 7.62x51 for example. FN-FAL, or it's various clones, G-3, M-14, and even the Swiss SiG Stgw-57, which fired a 7.5mm Swiss round.
