I have to disagree with this. AR's have been defined as "Assault Weapons" in various legislation. The term itself, is rather meaningless, gun people know this. Heck, for that matter, semi-auto is just as meaningless; so is the term "Automatic". Reference "Colt 45 Automatic pistol".......which is NOT an automatic.Huey » 20 Jun 2022, 2:45 pm » wrote: ↑ Actually, you have just destroyed your argument that the civilian semi auto AR 15 style weapons are assault weapons. They are not.
