It looks like artwork from 1980s horror based Fighting Fantasy gamebook. House of Horror I think it's called? I loved those sort of gamebooks.

How many colours do they have on contemporary cars? Black, white, gunmetal grey and maybe red I suppose.

Yet part of the definition of an assault rifle is it must be capable of selective fire. And the great majority of intermediate calibre rifles in military service still have selective fire. This despite most sources I've seen agreeing automatic fire is something the great majority of riflemen very rarely, if ever, use.

And the STG-44 wasn't a very well constructed rifle. It was almost a last ditch weapon, sacrificing longevity of service for ease of manufacture.
