    An assault rifle is a rifle used by assaulting infantry to assault a position static or mobile and can maintain supressive fire on a position from moderate distance. Generally fully auto capable.
    The Sturm was definitely the first closed bolt assault rifle.
    Arguments can be made for the Thompson and M1
    Its how I remember it being explained during my stint as a grunt.

    Thompson fires pistol ammo, so SMG?
