Funny, when I was in the Army we were strongly discouraged from ever putting our M-16A1's on full auto because they became completely innacurate. The term "assault rifle" is coined from a directly from the German term "Sturmgewehr" was never used officially when I was in and the term was "battle rifle" or "personal weapon".

The problem the NRA has with their propaganda is that these reduced cartridge or small caliber variant weapons were long ago deemed the most effective, efficient means for soldiers to kill people. Whether they're fully auto cyclic or semi-automatic, they are still militarized weapons and it's funny how they're nearly always the choice of mass-shooters...
