It depends on what you're trying to accomplish.
The dictionary says:
a rapid-fire, magazine-fed automatic rifle designed for infantry use.
and you can find this as well:
An assault rifle is a rapid-fire, magazine-fed rifle designed for military use. It is a shoulder-fired weapon that allows the shooter to select between semi-automatic (requiring you pull the trigger for each shot), fully automatic (hold the trigger and the gun continuously fires) or three-shot-burst modes.
