this is the definition of the currently banned "Assault Rifles"....

Specifically, a rifle is considered an "assault weapon" if it can accept a detachable magazine, and possesses two or more of the following features:

Folding or telescopic stock
Pistol grip protruding conspicuously beneath the stock
Bayonet mount
Flash suppressor or threaded barrel
Grenade launcher



so if take my ruger 10/22 (basically a gun used for shooting cans)
put a folding stock on it, and a bayonet lug (/sarcasm a truly dangerous item there, as we all know that people are constantly being murdered w/ bayonets /end sarcasm) on it. I have just taken a sporting rifle and made it an assault weapon, even though all i have changed is the appearance of the gun....it still functions the same. This is the biggest problem with the law.
