Haven't checked into whether Algeria has banned assault weapons all together or whether assault weapons are permitted to be carried or owned by foreigners. But I betcha they were illegal for them to have. Plus even if they were allowed, probably no legal way for them to get them from the US to Algeria.

So why do you need an assault weapon: for things that are unexpected and that others are unprepared for.
