Livestream: Assault Weapons and Assault Rifles, What's the Difference? -AMA and Live Gun Review!
This livestream clarifies the distinction between 'assault rifles' and 'assault weapons.' The speaker emphasizes that 'assault weapon' is a political term with no technical definition, often used to evoke fear. An 'assault rifle' is technically defined as a magazine-fed, select-fire rifle chambered in an intermediate cartridge, a classification that does not apply to semi-automatic firearms like the AR-15, which stands for ArmaLite Rifle.
