Description

assault weapon: semi-automatic firearms chambered for centerfire ammunition with a detachable magazine, a pistol grip and sometimes other features such as a vertical forward grip, flash suppressor or barrel shroud.

Citizen: non military, legally recognized subject or national of a state or commonwealth, either native or naturalized.

What if I don't use it? Like putting it in glass cabinet for show?
