My point is that gun laws should be more strict, and that certain types of firearms are too great of a danger to be owned or stockpiled by civillians

So... you're using the assault rifle as a single shot rifle... so, not as an automatic assault rifle... so, why would you take an assault rifle in this situation, rather than a hunting rifle?
In my state, CA, full auto firearms are illegal. The popular AK-47 was legal as a semi-automatic assault rifle up until about 1990 or so (*I think*), the sister version, the SKS was legal as a semi-automatic assault rifle for a few years after that.
