Oh Wow! The Weibel's a very unique looking beast! I must wonder if this design gave FN Herstal inspirations for the FAL

Hey! It's an interesting way to explain design changes; it is akin to evolution only its artificial. But the Weibel appears to predict the look of rifles in decades to come since

An 'assault rifle" is quite well-defined as a rifle using a detachable box magazine, chambered in an intermediate cartridge, and capable of firing in both semi- and fully-automatic. "Assault weapon," on tge other hand, is a political term used to refer to semiautomatic firearms with a variety of mostly cosmetic features. You are conflating the legal definition of "assault" with the military definition. "Assault," in the military, means to rapidly attack (or "storm") an enemy position.

Nice work, except you got a couple of the dates wrong. The M16A1 was not standardized until 1967, though the basic AR design indeed goes back to the 1950s. The M4A1 with the flattop upper did not appear until at least the mid-1990s.

The FG-42 was an automatic rifle, chambered in a full-size rifle cartridge (7.92x57mm). The Stoner 63 depended on the configuration, and could be am assault rifle, automatic rifle, automatic carbine, a light machine gunn or a general purpose machine gun, but did not contribute to the evolution of the assault rifle. The AR-10 was a battle rifle, a select-fire rifle chambered in a full-size rifle round (7.62x51mm). The Galil is just an Israeli-made Valmet, which is a Finnish AKM. The EM-1, SA series, and G11 didn't actually contribute to the evolution of the assault rifle.

Would you consider the Tavor an assault rifle?

Absolutely, as it meets all the criteria I have previously listed.
