assault weapon was a term coined by Hitlers generals to “trick” him into allowing the production of the Stgw 44 in the later stages of WW2. He would only allow the production of offensive weapons. The Stg 44 and its 8mm short round gave the German army a handy, select fire weapon that was fed from 30 round box magazines to fight in the cities and defensive works in east Germany to try and stall the red horde advance towards Berlin. Funny how our Democratic leadership loves the label of “Assault Rifle” while calling everyone that opposes gun control a NAZI…. You can’t make up this level of stupidity.
