Marvin,

Highly controversial subject and only "not listed" as an assault rifle thru a 
technicality and very simply converted to automatic firing by purchase of 
minor parts at any "legal" gun show.  Regardless whether fully automatic or semi 
automatic trigger, I will say again that any high powered gun with a load 
capacity of 20 rounds is not a hunting gun!
