First of all, calm down woman. Second, you are the one who said an AR isn't an AR if its not fully auto. Perhaps you should stick to EverQuest lore.

AR-15 = not an assault rifle.

Regardless of what you think, believe, wish, hope, pray.

M-16 = an assault rifle

You should probably take your own advice.

Since you like to play on words, a fully automatic AR-15 is not an Assault Rifle?

A fully automatic AR-15 would be an M-16, welcome to the world of guns.

You could also see M-4 and other varieties of the same militarized versions of the originals.

An assault rifle any rifle designed to fit between a Main Battle Rifle like a FN FAL, and a traditional marksman rifle, like a M1, they shoot intermediate cartriges like 5.56 or 7.62x39 and generally have a pistol grip and box mag. Full/Burst doesn't matter.

A civilian AR or AK can achieve full auto status with a ATF legal sear by using a slidefire stock, anyway.

I never used burst in the service, and my MK12 had full auto but that was retarded.

Anyway, heres my personal build I just finished.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/assault+rifle

assault rifle 
noun
1.
a military rifle capable of both automatic and semiautomatic fire, utilizing an intermediate-power cartridge.

2.
a nonmilitary weapon modeled on the military assault rifle, usually modified to allow only semiautomatic fire.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assault_rifle
An assault rifle is a select-fire (either fully automatic or burst capable) rifle that uses an intermediate cartridge and a detachable magazine. It is not to be confused with assault weapons.[1] Assault rifles are the standard service rifles in most modern armies. Assault rifles are categorized in between light machine guns, which are intended more for sustained automatic fire in a light support role, and submachine guns, which fire a pistol cartridge rather than a rifle cartridge.

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/assault+rifle

Military firearm that is chambered for ammunition of reduced size or propellant charge and has the capacity to switch between semiautomatic and fully automatic fire. Light and portable, yet able to deliver a high volume of fire with reasonable accuracy at modern combat ranges of 1,000–1,600 ft (300–500 m), assault rifles have become the standard infantry weapon of modern armies. Their ease of handling makes them ideal for mobile assault troops crowded into personnel carriers or helicopters, as well as for guerrilla fighters engaged in jungle or urban warfare. Widely used assault rifles are the U.S. M16, the Soviet Kalashnikov (the AK-47 and modernized versions), the Belgian FAL and FNC, and the German G3.

Would you like to know more, because your stupids are showing.

M16s and M4s in the Army aren't capable of automatic fire without modification.

I guess the M4 we used in Iraq and shit aren't assault rifles?

They don't have select fire capabilities? You're telling me that all of the M4s were specifically semi-automatic and had no burst fire capabilities?

New model M4s didn't have Burst. The old M16s and M4s did however. I don't really consider a 3 round burst automatic fire though.

Edit: At least a new model M4 that I got handed in 2011 didn't have burst.
