How do you propose we find the nutters before they have a record? Answer: We can't. We also don't punish all gun owners for the less than 1% of gun nutters.

This definition would apply to even a pellet rifle. LOL

Me too. I'd like to hear the technical explanation as to how flash hiders control shot placement, bayonet lugs make a rifle more lethal, how any ammunition introduced to an "assault rifle" somehow becomes more destructive as the rifle , by some technological wonder, transforms it into "military grade." Gotta love these buzz terms that get tossed out.
