I did not intend to toss this thread into disarray....
just a rifle seems an item for longer distance & accuracy. tend to be less of both with an "assault weapon". And yes I know mp44s & stg-45s were married up with scope for sniping.
other side... most of these ,including the m-16 were labeled as rifles.
