Again … where did they get the idea to call them that?

blame the gun grabbers all you want

The gun manufacturers **** in their nest when they coined the phrase “assault rifle” to sell what ever you guys want to call the guns on those gun magazine covers

the anti gun nuts took the gift and ran 

admit it or not

kinda like their “deplorables” moment
How many times where you dropped on your head as a child?

There are two different terms.  One is for semi aunts and Wes invented in the 80s by the anti gun nuts.  It is right there in the post ya ******* ****.

Assault Rifledates bak to **** WW2.

The term assault rifle is generally attributed to Adolf Hitler, who used the German word Sturmgewehr (which translates to "assault rifle") as the new name for the MP 43 (Maschinenpistole), subsequently known as the Sturmgewehr 44.[6][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Allied propaganda suggested that the name was chosen for propaganda purposes, but the main purpose was to differentiate the Sturmgewehr from German submachine guns such as the MP 40.[15]It has been suggested, however, that the Heereswaffenamt was responsible for the name Sturmgewehr, and Hitler had no input besides signing the production order.[16][15] Furthermore, Hitler was initially opposed to the idea of a new infantry rifle, as Germany lacked the industrial capacity to replace the 12,000,000 Karabiner 98krifles already in service, only changing his mind once he saw it first-hand.[17]The StG 44 is generally considered the first selective fire military rifle to popularize the assault rifle concept.[6][8] Today, the term assault rifle is used to define firearms sharing the same basic characteristics as the StG 44.[6][8]

Damn you are **** ignorant. BBL to see if it finally sunk in.  Those who claim you are a good guy are wrong.  You are as **** stupid as BV on this topic.  You know you are wrong and you are too **** stupid to admit.
