Each state in the US has its own gun laws and restrictions, with only 10 states banning assault weapons. Definitions vary, lacking a universal standard.
The 10 states banning assault-style weapons, according to the Giffords Law Center, have imposed a range of restrictions beyond federal policies, including universal background checks and waiting periods.
Gun control remains a contentious issue in American politics. A recent report shows 59% of American voters consider gun policy highly important for the upcoming presidential election.
The debate around gun policy has focused on assault weapons, as they are significantly deadlier in active shooter situations, pushing some states to implement stricter regulations.
