An ''']''' is a ] that uses an ], a ], and can switch between ]/]. Assault rifles are currently the standard ]s in most modern armies. |

By strict definition, a firearm must have the following characteristics to be considered an assault rifle:<ref>{{cite book|first1=C.|last1=Taylor|title=The Fighting Rifle: A Complete Study of the Rifle in Combat|isbn=0-87947-308-8}}</ref>{{pn|date=July 2018}}<ref>{{cite book|first1=F.A. |last1=Moyer|title=Special Forces Foreign Weapons Handbook|isbn=0-87364-009-8}}</ref>{{pn|date=July 2018}}<ref>{{cite book|first1=R.J.|last1=Scroggie|first2=Frank A.|last2=Moyer|title=Special Forces Combat Firing Techniques|date=December 1988|isbn=0-87364-010-1}}</ref>{{pn|date=July 2018}} |

* It must be an individual weapon; |
|
|
* It must be capable of ], which means it has the capacity to switch between ] and ]/];<ref>{{Britannica|39165|Assault rifle}}</ref> |
|
|
* It must have an intermediate-power cartridge: more power than a ] but less than a standard ] or ]. For full-power automatic rifles, see ]; |
|
|
* Its ] must be supplied from a detachable box magazine; |
|
|
* It should have an effective range of at least {{convert|300|m|yd|abbr=off}}. |
|
|
* Some Of Assault Rifles Are On Full Power Catridge. Anyways, Like The Fedorov Avtomat And The SHAK12, It’s ok. |
|
|
|
|
|
Rifles that meet most of these criteria, but not all, are technically not assault rifles, despite frequently being called such. |
|
|
|
|
|
For example: |
|
|
* Select-fire ]s and ]s aren't assault rifles; their effective range is only 200 yards.<ref>''Jane's Gun Recognition Guide''. Ian Hogg & Terry Gander. HarperCollins Publishers. 2005. page 330</ref> |
|
|
* Select-fire rifles such as the ] ] aren't assault rifles; they fire full-powered rifle cartridges. |
|
|
* Semi-automatic-only rifles like the ] aren't assault rifles; they do not have select-fire capabilities. In contrast, the original ] would meet the criteria. |
|
|
* Semi-automatic-only rifles with fixed magazines like the ] aren't assault rifles; they do not have detachable box magazines and are not capable of automatic fire. |
|
|
|
|
|
Several of the rifles on the below list have non-Assault Rifle variants. Because they lack the selective fire capability as they only fire semi-automatic even though it fulfils the other requirements of the definition above. |

<!-- If you wish to add an assault rifle then please do so alphabetically. If you are unsure how to, then please add it to the talk page and I will do it for you. If you want to edit a mistake etc, please follow the current layout. This list is clearly incomplete and I invite you to add any assault rifle which isn't there. Enjoy! --> |
