I don't want to sound like a smart arse, but it's actually classified as a battle rifle.

You're welcome, just for reference, assault rifles fire intermediate cartridges like 5.56mm, and battle rifles fire full sized cartridges like 7.62mm.

Lovely rifle by the way

Actually the L1A1 in British army terms is classed as a SLR self loading rifle is the correct term
