Well, according to MuricaPersonified, it's actually an "assault shotgun".
No, It's an automatic shotgun. Fucking dumbass. I already stated that while I think "assault rifle" is archaic, it is the goddamned accepted nomenclature. It's plain and fucking simple, and you don't fucking get it.
So, a magazine fed automatic rifle is an "assault rifle" but a magazine fed automatic shotgun is just a plain old automatic shotgun. Got it.
Yes. "Automatic rifle" is an umbrella and can be categorized under several types, which I have already gone over. I already gave better potential names to replace the archaic "assault rifle" nomenclature, but it doesn't change its current definition of box fed, intermediate chambering, select-fire rifle. I'm trying to drive that point home for you and am failing miserably.
