What is the maximum punishment for assault with a deadly weapon in the state of Texas?

What is the offense? Is it a felony or a misdemeanor? Serious answers only please. Thanks.
Answer:
if it is 2nd degree felony then it is like 2-20 if it is 1st degree then it is 5-99 or life
If it was a gun, then the maximum punishment is 99 years, suspended. After all, a man who loves guns can't be all bad, right?

"In the Great State, you can get five years for murder, and 99 years for pot possession."
-- Molly Ivins. The late, great Molly never said whether it would be reduced to 98 years if you didn't inhale.
Texas?? ...

I'd guess the Electric Chair, but I'm not 100% certain about that.


edit: It's been brought to my attention that Texas uses lethal injection, so please disregard my electric chair comment...and replace it with "lethal injection".
