- "We could go against assault rifles and rapid firing weapons in general, specifically the ones that are classed as the deadliest. That's all I'll say for now; I'm talking to many at once." -
First the definition if what an assault rifle is needs to be clarified. Technically, once someone has been assaulted with something, that something becomes an Assault Something, whether it be a rifle, pistol, knife, fork, hammer, golf club, tree branch, extension cord, or rock. So until that specific something has been used in an assault, it can not have the "assault" adjective added to it until an assault is part of that items history. As of right now, the BATF has no definition for the term assault rifle. Here are links to what they do have defined and what is what:

Then, what is a rapid firing weapon? That sounds like you are defining anything semiautomatic or automatic. Because with semiautomatic (pistols, rifles, or shotguns) are going to fire at the rate that the trigger is pulled, however fast or slow that may be. So what would be the deciding factors of a "rapid firing" firearm?

And finally, what would be the classification standards to classify something as "the deadliest of firearms"?
