One question: why is it called an "assault rifle" ? Are there other kinds of rifle used for non-assault purposes ? Friendly-greeting rifles ?

Forget the assault rifle, what you really want is a rucksack full of landmines.

What I really want is not to be in the middle of a war dressed as a soldier...

I think I'm prepared to go further and say that, regardless of fashion choices, what I really want is not to be in the middle of a war.

Damn you and your quick reactions, beating me to it.

Think I'd chose to not to be in the middle of a war regardless but if you're going to bring fashion into it I think I'd not want to be in the middle of a war in a pair of high heels. But then I'd practical like that.

I would rather be dressed like a civilian who is less likely to be shot at than a soldier...

Ok, as long as the war didn't involve an army that shoots at civilians.

I think we can conclude that war sucks.

OK, but you have to get it from Westminster to Moreton In Marsh on the trains!

Hmmm, that could be tricky. I hear there are a lot of wolverines around those parts.

Which is why you need an assault rifle :)
