I always hated the term "assault weapon." What is that, a weapon you use to assault somebody? That could be anything from a pocket knife to a walking stick to a gun. Basically anything that could be used as a weapon, which is virtually anything in the world.
It is true that some weapons are able to do much more damage than others, and joe public doesn't really have a use for them. The same is true of a high-performance sports car or a big rig. Would you want to ban those?
One does need a special lenience for a big rig, and therein may lie the answer. Before owning a weapon, require not only training in gun use ans safety, but also a psychological screening. Would that be good enough?

@NorthernBear Assault weapon when used here is a gun that has many rounds and is often used in a major battle or a war.
