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.
Assault rifle.
The SOAR (Special Operations Assault Rifle).
There are several different assault rifles - both by the true definition of an assault rifle and by the political motivated BATFE definition of a so-called "civilian assault rifle", manufactured by several different outfits. Which assault rifle did you have in mind, specifically?
Well i don't think so as i think fmj will only work on the assualt rifle not the shotgun
The first true assault rifle debuted in 1942.
You will need to define assault rifle, and where you live. A TRUE assault rifle is a machine gun, and transfers of them are tightly regulated by the Federal government. What most people CALL an assault rifle is nothing but a semi-automatic rifle, and in most of the US, does not require a license to possess.
Only with a very small assault rifle, or a very large purse.

An assault rifle is a rifle that has more than 22'' inches of barrel and has selective firing rate, while the carbine rifle has a less 22'' inches barrel and semi automatic. ^^ Wrong.. An assault rifle is any select fire rifle that is chambered for an intermediate cartridge... Barrel length has nothing to do with it. The M16 has a 20" barrel length and is considered an assault rifle. The AK47 has a 16" barrel and is considered an assault rifle... Carbines that are select fire and chambered in an intermediate cartridge are still considered assault rifles.
Have never heard of an underwater assault rifle. In the US, you must be 18 to buy a rifle, and 21 to buy a fully automatic rifle.
No. PA does not require gun registration- and the SKS is not an assault rifle- it is a semi auto rifle with a fixed magazine.
A true "assault rifle" that can be transferred legally will run you 10000 and up.
