[As I posted on another blog and taking a cue from MB's blog]
I here by declare that I will no longer use the term "assault weapon" or "AW" (or AWB). Hereafter those weapons which, due to their unconventional appearance, are the object of potential regulation will be referred to as:
Cosmetically Incorrect Firearms or CIF
CIFB will be used to refer to any legislation designed to ban or regulate CIFs
