A "semi automatic rifle" is a long rifle, the kind you hunt with. An AR15 is an assault rifle. It's an assault rifle that is semi automatic.
It is a semi automatic rifle period. An assault rifle is full automatic by definition. I do not know of any Army this day in age that uses semi automatic rifles.
