	Assault rifle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Primarily in the United States, the term assault weapon is an arbitrary, confusing, and ambiguous term used to describe a collection of semi-automatic firearms that have certain features, such as a folding stock or the ability to accept a detachable magazine of a capacity larger than ten rounds.
		However, assault weapons are by legal definition not fully automatic weapons, and vice versa, and thus fully automatic weapons were unaffected by the ban, although they have been heavily restricted since the National Firearms Act of 1934.
		The term 'assault weapon' was previously (before the bill), and still is sometimes used to refer to fully automatic weapon; but no longer in any legal sense after the bill at the national level.

	Thermally induced firing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the US military thermally induced firing, often called a cook-off, is when a round fires from a weapon, without the trigger being depressed, due to the heat present from previous firings.
		When the trigger is released the weapon feed leaves a final round into the chamber, the heat ignites the propellant and the round is fired.
		In the case of the US M296 or other squad assault weapons sustained fire of only a hundred rounds a minute can create sufficient heat, without efficient cooling of the barrel or the chamber it is easy to built up heat to cause either a cook off or stoppage of the gun through metal expansion.

	Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW), M249 Light Machine Gun

	Rational Basis Analysis of "Assault Weapon" Prohibition, David B. Kopel, Independence Institute
		In 1990, "assault weapons" comprised thirty-six of the 963 firearms involved in homicide or aggravated assault and analyzed by police crime laboratories, according to a report prepared by the California Department of Justice, and based on data from police firearms laboratories throughout the state.
		Firearms expert Jack Lewis, whose two books on "assault weapons" are cited as authoritative by gun control advocates in their briefs defending "assault weapon" bans, likewise writes that almost all of the guns dubbed "assault weapons" are well-suited for defensive purposes, although some of the guns are too heavy and cumbersome for field sports.
		Official statistics prove that so-called "assault weapons" are rarely involved in criminal activity, and hence the use of "assault weapons" in crime is insufficiently demonstrated to pass the rational basis test.

		The assault rifle's strength is its ability to fire highly accurate bursts at close to medium range while the machine gun is best at laying down great amounts of fire and really putting fear into an enemy.

	:: LEAST I COULD DO FORUM :: > 9/1/05-Review: Squad Assault: Second Wave
		What makes Squad Assault unique compared to other wargames and real-time strategy games is that it models realistic psychological behaviors for each of the soldiers in battle, meaning that they behave like real human beings rather than soulless automatons who will do anything they're told without hesitation.
		In other words, watch a squad get torn apart by machine-gun fire, and the survivors will cower, panic, or even break and run instead of follow your orders to fight to the death (though some might snap and go berserk as well).
		The graphics are still relatively crude, from the low-res, blurry textures and the blocky, chunky unit animations to the fact that the battlefields still seem to exist on a vast, blurry plane as there's not an attempt to hide the edges of the map.
