A term created for the 1994 "Assault Weapons Ban," which banned firearms based on appearance, brand name, and features not related to firearm function. A proper definition of this word requires the entire 1994 act, so feel free to look it up.
History:
The term "assault weapon" has no industry or military definition. It was created to give a single name to all of the firearms politicians wanted to ban in 1994. Opponents of the 1994 ban refer to it more accurately as the "Semi-Auto" ban.

Any firewarm that is made out to look scary so that banning the civilian posession of it will appear politically correct to hypocritical sycophants who think that only governments and criminals should have guns and that fascist police states that arbitrarily massacre their own citizens are the best thing since sliced bread.
My god - that rimfire's not a plinker, it's a goddam assault weapon!

Any firearm that doesn't have some sort of wood texture.
Nerf guns don't have wood so they're assault weapons!

*A firearm that is full-auto and capable of firing multiple rounds by holding the trigger.
*Apparently, a firearm that looks "menacing", or equipped with cool add-ons. Generally considered by the NRA as "an emotional response from gun-violence". On a related note, ALL shotguns are considered "assault weapons".
"My Mossberg has compensators on the muzzle. I guess that makes it an assault weapon. Oh wait. It already is."

A broad term usually used by the left to describe all guns, or more specifically guns that are modern and have black coloring to them. This can also be influenced by gun attachments.
Getting rid of Assault Weapons will just cause more gun related injuries in America.
