GUN TEST ANSWERS.

1) IDENTIFY THE ASSAULT RIFLE:

(tricky question) Answer is NEITHER.  
Gun A and gun B are both Ruger 10/22's.  These are semi-automatic rifles (one bullet fired per trigger pull) and believe it or not, only differ in appearance.


2) IDENTIFY THE MACHINE GUN:

Answer is GUN A.  
Gun A is a Glock 18 which is a fully-automatic machine pistol. It can potentially fire all of the rounds it holds very rapidly with one pull of the trigger.  Gun B is an AR-15 which is a semi-automatic rifle, virtually identical in it's function to the Ruger 10/22 from question 1.

DID YOU KNOW?  Contrary to what you have been lead to believe, the AR-15 is NOT an assault rifle although it looks much like the M-16 or M-4 military assault rifles.  What makes it different from those you ask?

Assault Rifle - a rifle that fires an intermediate cartridge and has a select-fire capability to switch between automatic, burst, and semi-automatic fire.  It also uses a detachable magazine with various capacities.
