Hate the term “assault rifle.” That’s a political name...
...to make certain firearms sound scarier based primarily on their appearance. Any firearm is capable of assaulting someone, just like any knife, baseball bat, tool, vehicle, fist...
Needless to say, I’m not happy with the way certain firearms are classified by the BATF. If you take the stock off of an AR, and install a shorter barrel, it’s considered a pistol. If you take a pistol and clamp it into a device to give it a stock, it’s considered a short barreled rifle. Pretty clear the former is a rifle, and the latter is a pistol, but that’s not the way the law is written and/or interpreted. I don’t understand it either...
