In the interests of international clarity here, I have to add that we are not discussing true AK47 "assault rifles", just as the weapons in that newspaper photo are not true M-16s. The discussion centers on "civilian" versions, capable of semi-automatic fire only.
Full-auto weapons require a special Federal license, expensive and difficult to get. The same applies to various other non-sport weapons.
