Is it the style we are concerned about or the function. Because there is a distinct difference.
It's the function that makes a weapon an assault rifle/weapon, not the "style".
AR doesn't equal Assault Rifle or military style weapon. It's merely a semi-automatic rifle. Can it be modified to be more dangerous - to fit the category of an assault rifle? Yes...but that is illegal.

I wasn't trying to be snarky I was just defending my position.
I know AR does not mean assault rifle.
Let me just ask this, why is it such a popular gun with mass shooters? I'm guessing it has to do with the function of it, being able to mow down many people quickly.
