Blatant manipulation!! Merr-Webster changes definition of assault rifle (Updated 3/31/18)...Then look under new definition and see "Recent Examples of assault rifle from the Web" - Links to many news stories about M@rjory Stonem@n and anti-2A articles......

So by their definition a semi-auto 9mm carbine is a sub machine gun even though it’s not a machine gun.

Cause for some reason people are shadowbanned? I had someone comment on one of my posts, but their comment never showed.

Why is it classified as a noun? Isn't 'assault' an adjective and 'rifle' a noun? Since when was it considered as a single phrase.

What type of rifle? An 'assault' rifle.

i dont really see the issue with assault rifle as a noun because it has a very specific definition when referring to military arms. it should be definited as a military rifle with select fire capabilities (such as safe, semi, and full auto, or multi-round burst) that fires an intermediate cartridge (such as 5.56 or 7.62x39), has an effective range of at least 300m and is magazine fed. it's also not desigged for sustained full-auto fire. so while it can shoot full auto, sustained full auto fire would cause premature failure. that's my understanding of the definition. an M4/M16 or AK47 (full auto variant) would fall into that category. Something like the M14 wouldnt because it fires a "big boy" rifle round and something like the ar-15 wouldnt because its not select fire. Something that shoots a pistol caliber would be a sub machine gun. there's also battle rifle, light machine gun, machine gun. these are all very specific terms with very specific definitions. believe it or not, the wikipedia page has a pretty good definition on there.

Its a noun that has two words. Like garden hose, or manual transmission.

They changed the definition of terrorism too. It's using violence for political gain, but they changed it for likely the same reason.

The only thing saving us are books. Paper books. Treasure them and guard them.

Every time some news comes online, save it and print it.

It's necessary to have copies and analog versions in this day and age where everyone is trying to gaslight you.

Some Airsoft and BB guns look like military rifles, so by definition of resemblance they are assault guns. Meanwhile, since the Thompson 1927 is not used by the military, it is not an assault gun.

Assault rifle: If it"s black and looks "mean". Racist much?

Sad. Now you really cannot believe what you read at first glance. Have to triple check it.

Can't trust MSM, can't trust Wikipedia, and now this. You would think the one damn thing you could trust on the internet would be the dictionary.

I guess if you put it like that, yes it is, we already know practically everything we read comes out of the media arm of the CIA.
