One can commit the crime of assault with just about anything including fists which makes whatever is used an "assault" weapon. (Ask someone who wants to impose unarmed pacifism on the rest of us if they support fist control) Militarily speaking it's probably best to have a full-auto weapon to carry out an assault. Therefore, I would define "assault weapons" as full-auto ones--which have made illegal to citizens since 1934 without an intrusive and expensive federal permit. Why is it that many polticians, particularly of the presidential variety like Clinton, Bush and virutally all of the Democratic and Republican candidates, want to deny us semi-auto weapons (which they call "assault weapons") when they have "assault weapons" paid for by us for their protection, even while campaigning fo the job? Such arrogant elitism that ignores and disdains the Bill of Rights makes them unfit to be the public servants of a free people!! “Assault” is a type of crime or a type of military offensive tactic.

Isn't Springfield Armory in IL? I know by adding certain stocks, you can make the M1A into an AW by just about any definition in use.
