Looks like the "old fool" is conflating "assault weapons" with "assault rifles." That's pretty common these days and has been since Josh Sugarman's Violence Policy Center white paper suggested to the Clinton Administration that exactly that confusion among the public would make it easy to pas what became the 1994 AWB.
