with a compensator instead of a flash hider is not an assault weapon.

This;



is an assault weapon. 


Why is one an "assault weapon" and the other not?  An effing pistol grip, that's why.  Also, the AR is black and black guns are scarier and more assaulty.

Given the choice I'd prefer to get shot with a 5.56 than a 7.62X51 any day.  

Yeah, the assault weapon thing to me has always been horrible. It's an arbitrary line that is difficult to really draw with any sort of accuracy. I admittedly say no semi-automatic firearms because I see no need for them in the citizenry, but I will be the first to tell you it's fun as hell to hit the range with some of them.
