Many people confuse the terms "assault rifle" and "assault weapon", so here is the answer for both.

Illegal possession of an assault rifle, which is a full-auto firearm like the military M-16, is a federal felony and can be punished by up to 10 years in federal prison.

Assault weapons, which were defined as certain semi-auto firearms like the civilian AR-15, are not illegal at the federal level and there is no federal penalty for possessing one. Some states have laws against assault weapons, so you would have to say which state you are from for a better answer.
