Determine which of the numbered, italicized words and phrases are used as rhetorical devices

Determine which of the numbered, italicized words and phrases are used as rhetorical devices in the following passage. If the item fi ts one of the text’s categories of rhetorical devices, identify it as such.
The National Rifl e Association’s campaign to arm every man, woman, and child in America(1) received a setback when the president signed the Brady Bill. But the gun-pushers(2) know that the bill was only a small skirmish in a big war(3) over guns in America. They can give up some of their more fanatical(4) positions on such things as assault weapons(5) and cop-killer bullets(6) and still win on the one that counts: regulation of manufacture and sale of handguns.
