“Assault rifle” is a real thing. The made up term is “assault weapon”.

“Assault” describes an action, not a thing.

Assault rifles must be capable of automatic fire like a machine gun.

"'Assault rifle' is a real thing."
Sure. That phrase could be used to describe to any rifle that is used to assault someone. It could be used to describe a rock used in an assault, too. Our U.S. Army doesn't use the phrase, though.
