Exactly, its not the equipment so much as the role. Any armored vehicle with a DF heavy gun used to support Infantry could be considered an Assault Gun, turret or no turret.

BTW, the Churchill AVRE didn't technically have a gun during the war, its main weapon was a huge spigot mortar. It got a low velocity gun post war.
