Hi Jackie:

As far as I know there is no legit reason for assault weapons. 
Certainly not for hunting.  

In LA the sergeants (cops) had to get special permission to carry M-16
A2 Service rifles because they were outgunned by the bad guys.  

There is also a special unit of the SWAT team that has these, but can
only use them with permission from higher ups.

Of course a lot of the bad guys already have them, and no permission is
needed for them to use them.  <TIC>
