Pardon me, but what are the definitions you are using for an "Assault
Rifle" 
and an "Automatic Assault Rifle?"  The last I heard, an asasult rifle is
a 
weapon using an intermediate-power cartridge and capable of automatic
and 
semi-automatic operation.  At least in current technology/usage--hence
my 
question (since an AR is semi and full-auto, why a seperate entry for
auto?).

And regarding the "non-lethal" d12 weapons you had listed--what's the
PSB or 
what sci-fi tale/universe does it come from?  It's kind of hard to
figure out 
if someone's stats appear reasonable without knowing what it is they are

describing...

Just my usual question and a half, not to be taken too seriously.
