In the gun control debate, labels are often misleading: The "assault weapon
ban" is no different, conjuring up images of machine guns, a view encouraged by
the news media, which typically show machine guns in their stories on the
ban. Yet, the 1994 federal assault weapon ban had nothing to do with machine
guns, only semi-automatics that fire one bullet per pull of the trigger.
