Aw, come on, you gotta admit "assault rifle" sounds cooler than "automatic rifle." It's a little easier to say, too.
Nope, it does not sound cooler.
You have Bolt Action Rifle, Lever Action Rifle, Semi-Automatic Rifle. Automatic Rifle, Machine Pistol, Sub Machine Gun, Light Machine Gun, Heavy Machine Gun, Single Shot Rifle, Automatic Pistol, Revolver, etc....
"Assault Rifle" was a term coined by Adolf Hitler and the Anti-Gunners.
