I know you're a gun guy Crow and I respect that, we just disagree on this subject. 

 

Definitions and usage. Drawing from federal and state law definitions, the term assault weapon refers primarily to semi-automatic rifles, pistols, and shotguns that are able to accept detachable magazines and possess one or more other features. Some jurisdictions define revolving cylinder shotguns as assault weapons.

"... possess one or more other features. Some jurisdictions define revolving cylinder shotguns as assault weapons."

If you can't define it, how can you prohibit it?
