For some people collecting guns and shooting them is a hobby.

I own many automatic weapons and they are no different in terms of firing ability than the rifles you mentioned. The term "assault weapon" is sentionalized by idiots and the media

What you see sold in stores is not automatic guns. They are semiauto and shoot one bullet everytime you pull the trigger. Full auto guns are very expensive, very regulated, 6 month wait and have only had 2 instances of their use in a crime in the last 75 years...
