" Maine Lawmakers Urge Cabela’s to Stop Selling ‘Assault Rifles’ ...."

Cabela's does not and never has sold "Assault Rifles."

Because, unlike "Assault Weapon," "Assault Rifle" is a real thing that has a real definition. The U.S. Army defines assault rifles as "short, compact, selective-firing weapons that fire a cartridge intermediate in power between sub-machine gun and rifle cartridges."

Nothing Cabela's sells or ever has sold was "selective-firing" (i.e., capable of firing fully automatically) ergo Cabela's does not and never has sold "Assault Rifles."

Yep. Cabelas should issue a press release: All Cabela employees must abide by the NFA 1934 act and stop selling assault rifles until this terrible law is revoked!

Call your Congress and demand them to repeal the NFA act of 1934 and GCA of 68!
