No it is not exactly what you trained with so why try and pass that lie off as truth. In addition the last stats that I read less than 1% of gun crimes are committed with so called "Assault Rifles". I have not recently checked so the percentage may have changed. The last I am aware of the guns used in the majority of shootings are "Saturday Night Specials/cheap hand guns".
An "Assault Rifle" is a full automatic rifle. Not a semi automatic with any size of magazine does not an assault rifle make and you damned well know this. So why do you repeatedly state an AR-15 is an "Assault Rifle" when it is not and certainly is not the exact same weapon you trained with, an M-16, which was and is an actual "Assault Rifle".
