I don't know about you, but my definition of "Assault Rifle" includes: Selective Fire, a controllable cartridge (They called it "Intermediate," but nowadays, .223 is more standard than .308. So, the baseline has shifted) high capacity, and all the military stuff militaries require in a battle rifle. I've never even held a handful of 6.5 Arasaka, much less a Federov to fire in full auto. So, IDK whether to call it an "Assault Rifle" or a "Battle Rifle." To me, the difference is how practical it is to fire from the shoulder, on the move, in full auto. Assault is a Role, I can't say whether this would be suitable in that role, without actually loading one up, and running a course with it. (Probably not going to happen.)
