No disrespect taken in any of your post and I will say this is intended respectfully. "Assault Weapon" is a political term at best.
All of these (pic below) will do what people think an AR15 does and the damage will be worst due to caliber of the weapons. The "political" slant is that the AR15 is an overly powerful "assault weapon" when in fact it shoots an "underpowered" round that most hunters use as long range small game/varmint hunting.
People make a lot of talking points from positions of ignorance.
