This news just in:

All of the Wal-Marts across Alabama sold out of ammunition as of
yesterday. A reliable source said that one of the purchasers
commented that while Russia may have invaded Georgia , they sure
as hell ain't doin' it to Alabama .

We Georgians are doing our very best to contain the threat within our borders.

There are two definitions of the term "Assault Rifle": a functional definition and a political definition.

The functional definition means something which is light and easy to carry arround, for which the ammo is light and easy to carry around, which is just big enough to put a victim out of combat for at least a few months but not so big that recoil interferes with follow-on shots, and it's not even obvious that full auto mode is necessary to meet that definition. My own ideal version of such a thing would look like a 25 - 26 caliber rimfire leveraction rifle similar to the little Henry 22-mag.

The political definition is basically just anything which on a 1 - 10 scale for being scary to demokkkrats, rises above about an eight and a half and that would include the thing in your image.

Here's something else which would pass that criteria...

But, again, to my thinking at least, the ultimate real assault weapon would look more like the little Henry lever-action 22mag rifle which you'd buy on Gunbroker for $250.

Shocked I thought you were the gun nut guru. That's a bb gun compared to a barrett... and looks nothing like it.

Barrett does make a rifle with a similar look to it...

All but the Barrett rifles and FAL are from my personal collection of long arms that I have photographed.

As far as posting images - I think A2K has a tutorial available.
