“described as an AK-47-**style** assault rifle,”

Is this like banning pistol grips on rifles because they supposedly allow criminals to spray a room with bullets like in a Hollywood movie?

Ask anti-gun nuts why they don’t know anything about guns.

Also, “assault rifle” as used in the USA today is an invented term.

A while back I saw a newsbimbo say "Semi automatic weapons can't be used for hunting" as if it were fact.

Also, “assault rifle” as used in the USA today is an invented term.

Actually it's precisely defined term. It's unlike this "AK-47 style" Carbine met the definition.

Assault Rifle: A select fire, full auto or burst fire capable, rifle firing an *intermediate* power cartridge. (Intermediate between a full power "battle rifle" cartridge such as a 30-06, 7.62x51, 7.62x54R, etc, and a pistol cartridge (.45 ACP, .40 S&W, 9mm,, etc).

This AK style weapon likely met the second part of the definition. We can only wish it had met the first, because he'd likely have missed more firing full auto, and run out of ammo faster.
