in defense of one's home larger heavier weapons are more appropriate. when on the streets, a concealed weapon makes more sense unless there is all out insurrection. so when people whine that you don't need an "assault weapon" (whatever that is) they are clueless. first of all they aren't smart enough or able to predict what life/death fight you might be in or the environment. True, I don't "need" an AW (whatever that is) for some tasks. In other cases such as a riot where mobs are trying to loot and pillage, a rifle with a standard military capacity magazine (20-36 rounds) makes lots of sense
