"assault weapon" is a buzzword that was created in the mid 90s by californian and new york liberal politicians that wanted to ban all semi auto guns, they failed the first several times and then started calling semi's "military weapons" that did not work because of course, the civilian clones are no select fire. then they started calling them "cop killers" which didnt work because 98% of guns used in crimes including against police were ****** low rung handguns and shotguns.
so they started calling them ASSAULT WEAPONS you know, cause that sounds SCARY AND **** MAN
this gun. the exact same model i grew up with from about 12 years old. is is one of the most classicly popular .22 rifles in the world.

in california it is an ASSAULT WEAPON
see this fat disgusting worthless *****? she is one of the original writers of the "assault weapon ban" in the 90s that was overturned and has tried every few years since. one of the provisions in one such attempt is that if a gun had a "barrel shroud" (a safety device to prevent burns) it was to be considered an ASSAULT WEAPON

she has no idea what a barrel shroud is, yet she made a law about it.
do not play the liberal word game, there is no such thing as an "assault weapon" anymore than if i were to bash someones face in with a brick, you know a weapon. that i assaulted someone with.

Never has it been used as a threat to another person by any of us, just because some retard mudslime wants to kill people for his retarded mudking doesn't mean it needs to be banned. What's funny is even though it's banned in Cali it's still legal to have it since it was registered before the ban there so that fat pig, that doesn't know **** about guns pretty much failed. They could have easily made a bomb out of basic household materials, anyone can, retards like you think banning a gun is going to stop people from killing, you can literally make mustard gas from old pee, and bleach, so idk what you retards thing gun control will solve.
