I struggle to stay off my "soap box" on stuff like this. "Assault weapons," please, suffice it to say, were I a New Yorker, I'd be a "criminal" too.
<<<<Not surprised by that many people telling them to GFY.
Good for them, more citizens should tell the public servants to piss off.

This. And not just about asinine gun control laws. Someone needs to remind these pencil necks that they serve us, not the other way around.
Everyone should register a few of these just to gum up the works:
Connecticut too. Meanwhile, in California, the lead state Democrat pushing gun control on the peons and author of the impossible to implement microstamping BS is arrested for selling guns, RPG's, SAM's, etc. to (almost) terrorists.
Ahh.... the ol' "do as I say not as I do" routine.
The best line went like "when I'm Secretary of State, this will be much easier and we won't have to go through Florida...."
I love these threads.
That's not technically accurate. This is the first "assault RIFLE":
The Brown Bess was a musket as it's bore did not have any rifling to spin the projectile. Basically a single bullet shotgun.
In reply to Giant Purple Snorklewacker:
Pretty much, its just now we don't get the same(or better) stuff as the military
In reply to Bobzilla:
Pretty much, back then the military used highly inaccurate smoothbore muskets, most of the colonists had much more accurate/effective rifles.

The advantage of the smoothbore musket was that it could be reloaded in a fraction of the time it took to reload a rifle. The U.S. Civil War 1 changed that with the introduction of the mini ball, which loaded into a rifle as fast as a musket, then expanded the base when fired to engage the rifling to impart spin for accuracy.

this...
although its origins (Kentucky, or Pennsylvania) are disputed. Historians tend to lean to Pa being the original home of the "Kentucky Rifle" 
If you were talented you might get off 2... MAYBE 3 rounds a minute...
The first "rapid" fire rifle(4-6 rounds per minute), the Ferguson breech loading rifle would be considered what??

Man, I've got a couple of way more powerful hammers, that would probably be legal
In reply to Giant Purple Snorklewacker:
Would one of these be a "machine hammer" or something then?
It might be time to take up gunsmithing. Then they will want me to register these.

That's the back.
In reply to Toyman01:
I've constructed a (legal) functional firearm with nothing beyond a hand drill.
