To me, it’s not about being fully automatic or how fast they fire. It’s about how many rounds it can hold. Hunters wait for the animal to get close enough, then fire hopefully just one shot maybe two if the animal is still alive after its tracked down. No hunter is unloading 30 round clips at an animal.
Actual assault rifles are fully automatic military hardware.
What most people call assault rifles are just hunting rifles in cosplay.

Yes, that was my point.

You apparently have never been hog hunting. They travel in packs and don’t go down easy.
Plus, you can get extended magazines for regular hunting rifles.
But, this is a moot point because the definition of assault rifle is one that’s capable of automatic fire.
