Trouble is, there is no real difference that you can measure with a ruler between “assault riles” and deer rifles. An “assault weapons ban” would be a ban on all rifles because there is nothing you can point to that makes assault rifles different from any other rifle.
In actual fact, there are styling differences. The “assault rifles” are, or look like; AR-15’s, black plastic stock, detachable magazine, chambered for .22 center fire, and finished in some military antireflective and water resistant finish. Hunting rifles usually have walnut stocks, any kind of ammunition feed, chambered for any cartridge ever manufactured, and blued metal work. I submit that these are styling differences and do not make one more deadly than the other.
The anti gunners pushing to revive the old “assault weapons ban” are perfectly happy to ban anything that shoots, so they don’t care.
