How old do you have to be to have a assault rifle?
18 for long guns like rifles and shotguns, 21 for handguns. The so called "assault rifles" are just really semi automatic rifles that look like military guns.To own an NFA firearm, such as a short barreled rifle or shotgun, or a true assault rifle with the selective fire functions, the minimum age is also 21.
Is it legal to have an assault rifle in your vehicle?
That depends on the jurisdiction and how the rifle is packaged. Technically, an "assault rifle" is a fully-automatic weapon; a machine gun like an AK47, or something like an M16 which is capable of firing a 3-round burst. (Most M16 rifles were built with the ability to fire single-shot, 3 round burst, or full auto. Most of them have been rebuilt to eliminate the full-auto setting, as soldiers were generally just wasting their ammunition that way.) In order to possess or transport a machine gun, you would need a special category of FFL (Federal Firearms License).

How do you identify a pellet rifle?
A pellet rifle has no firing pin. It also can not fire a bullet or gunpowder. It can not be made to do so either. The pellet has no charge (casing like a bullet) it just a pellet. However pellet rifles can be just as deadly as a real firearm. They use Air or C02 to project the pellet downrange. Some Pellet rifles are used for hunting, others for target practice. The Major difference between a firearm and an air rifle, is Gunpowder is use in Firearms and Air or C02 is used in Air rifles.

What is better JLS FN scar or JLS FN 2000?
Just the fact the the FN-F2000's ejection system was specially designed to be ambidextrous without any special mods is a big +1 in my book. Both (standard, non-variant) weapons fire 5.56mm ammo, the norm for assault rifles, but only the FN-SCAR can fire larger 7.62mm NATO rounds. Then again, the FN-SCAR uses small 20-round magazines, while F2000 rifles provide 10 more rounds. I give my edge to the F2000.

If you are referring to a "SET Trigger" on a rifle. The Set Trigger releases all the normal mechanisms in the action but does not release the hammer on the rifle, but it sets up the firing trigger to act like a "Hair Trigger" just barley touch the firing trigger and the rifle goes off. It's used in hunting. It is common on black powder "Hawkins Rifles."
How does an assault rifle work?
To be able to fire repetitious rounds most military standard assault rifles, such as the AK47/74, M16 and M4 Carbine, work on gas power which is recycled energy from a spent round. I will do my best to explain the mechanics of this. Anyone with the slightest interest in weaponry knows the standard firing pin mechanism. This firing pin is still in all assault rifles and has been for hundreds of years. When you pick up an assault rifle you load a clip (magazine) and cock the weapon as you would do with any rifle. When the weapon is cocked a spring mechanism inside the clip chambers a round and the firing pin is pulled back, providing the safety is off you are ready to fire your first round. I will now try and explain how the gas mechanism works. The gas piston tube is best exampled on the AK-47 as it is easily identifiable as the last 2 inches of it is exposed above the rifle barrel, where on the M16 and M4 Carbine the gas tube is covered. When the round is fired the gas (recycled energy) is picked up by a port on the weapon which drives a piston that travels back down the rifle. This recycled energy/piston repeats the manual task you just did to cock the weapon prior to firing. It drives the bolt back, forces the spent round out of the chamber, re-cocks the firing pin and the spring mechanism in the clip chambers a new round then the bolt closes, via another spring mechanism, then the next round is ready to fire. Needless to say all this happens a blink of an eye and if you have the weapon switched to full auto mode you will empty a clip of 25/30 rounds in a matter of seconds. A "true" assault rifle has the ability to fire on fully automatic mode. They are normally is fitted with high capacity magazines (30 ~ 1000 rounds) because they use ammunition at a high rate. Other than the fully automatic feature, the mechanical operation is exactly like any simi automatic rifle. What is considered an "assault rifle" changes over time. In the late 1800s, a lever action Winchester would have been considered an assault rifle when compared to a single shot muzzle loader.
