#FakeNews #FakeHeadlines What in the hell is an "assault pistol"??? Obviously we've heard this phony term applied to rifles but this is a first for me in terms of handguns.

An assault pistol or an assault rifle is one of those gun-like things that makes loud bangy sounds. As opposed to a regular gun that goes pew pew.

I don’t know what an assault pistol is, but you can’t own one in CA, so this story must be false.

Legally, an “assault pistol” is basically an “assault weapon” (AR15, AK47S, etc) with short barrel and no stock.

Did it have assault bullets in it and was it carried in an assault holster? Was the shooter wearing an assault T-shirt too?

an assault pistol

An assault pistol was used to destroy an entire American carrier task force in 2006.

I guess any pistol used in an assault becomes an Assault Pistol, by definition.
Plus it sounds scarier in the obligatory gun control debate that must always follow shootings.

No! No! No! Not an assault pistol. It was a Salt Pistol. You know, one that shoots salt.

What in the hell is an "assault pistol"???

It's a bad gun ... and since all guns are bad, ANY pistol is an "assault pistol". A .22LR Ruger Single Six is an "assault pistol". Just ask the ignorant leftist poltroons in Big Media. They'll tell you all about it.

A Tec-9?
That is the only thing I can think of that the hoplophobic ignoramouses of the Left could call an “assault pistol.”
