The U.S. Army defines assault rifles as "short, compact, selective-fire weapons that fire a cartridge intermediate in power between submachinegun and rifle cartridges."
note the term "select-fire". this term refers to a weapon capable of being switched from semi-automatic fire to full automatic fire (and typically also safety) by way of a fire selector switch, typically located on the side of the weapon.
ANY rifle that lacks the ability to go full-auto fire is by definition NOT an assault rifle, ever.
M16 and M4 carbine weapons function with two mechanisms called 'sears'. a sear is what connects the trigger of the weapon to the hammer, and thus is responsible for actually firing a weapon. when you set the selector to semi-automatic, the hammer rests on a forward sear and will only fine single shots - this cant be changed with any amount of toolwork. The second sear is activated when the fire selector is turns, at which the hammer revers to a secondary sear - the auto-sear - and is then capable of fully automatic fire.
AR15 rifles simply do not have an auto sear. the hammer has no second notch to contact an auto-sear, even if one was present. the section of the reciever where an auto sear is put, is now a solid chunk of aluminum.
now do you understand why an AR15 isnt an assault rifle? |

| An M16 is burst fire, it's still called an assault gun. |

So a M16 is not an assault rife? It doesn't go full auto. _____________________________
M16, M16A1 and M16A3 are all full auto, while M16A2 and A4 are burst
An M16 is burst fire, it's still called an assault gun. ____________________________
under US law burst fire is the same thing as automatic fire, and an AR15 is incapable of either.
subsequently, many M16-pattern rifles can be full auto, burst, and semi automatic with a 4-position fire selector.
in other words: stop playing call of duty |
