From the picture and story, it was this:

In other words, NOT an assault rifle.

True. Assault rifles have been pretty much illegal for years.
It might be an "assault weapon" if the state of NY has specifically defined
it as one in NY.
But, if legally bought, it won't be an "assault weapon" either.

So it wasn't an assault rifle or an "assault weapon". Those terms are
just name calling by gun control harpies. But it WAS stolen. So there's
no need to vilify the weapon, lock him up on the "possession of stolen
property" charge.

Oh, and it's worth point out that there was no violent crime involved,
and since the gun was stolen, making it harder to buy a gun through
legal channels wouldn't have stopped this joker from getting the gun.

Last I checked, there was a CA legal version of that gun. I don't recall
what the difference was, but perhaps it was a feature that stopped it from
being fired with the stock folded.

And you're right. The crime was not a function of what gun it was, and
there was no need to lie about what kind of gun it was. Well, for rational
people there was no need.

I did like the two SEPARATE charges, though- possession of a weapon

But...but....but....It's black....and looks really really nasty and evil, so
it's clearly has to be one....I mean look at that high capacity detachable
magazine, and that evil pistol grip that has only one purpose....and let's
not forget that it folds.....all signs of nastiness and utter evil. You must
be some sort of gun nut blinded by the evil nature of such guns. Heck I bet
you could even hold one and not feel the least amount of repulsion from
doing so....
