So Rhode Island are you banning baseball bats, hockey sticks or skateboards? How about knives? Automobiles?
Those are assault weapons in the hands of criminals...

I would say this is an assault rifle...
The StG 44 (abbreviation of Sturmgewehr 44, “assault rifle 44”) is a German assault rifle developed during World War II by Hugo Schmeisser.

Well, you are correct.
The whole FFL / purchasing / background check / etc. is not 2A.
But, here we are . . .

And the rifles were still for sale all through the ban. You could also buy used military surplus 30 round mags.

high-powered firearms.. largely the weapon of choice among those responsible for most of the country’s devastating mass shootings. Most? How many firearm mass murders so far this year versus negligent and intentional automobile homicides? Hmm?
What's this nebulous declaration of a firearm being "high-powered"?
This is a dog-whistle article for Leftists.
