/Huh!/ Bad no more ugly gun ban!  What'cha gon', what'cha gon, what'cha gonna do,
when Dana Booth and VERN HUMPHREY come for you?


 VH>> Not quite true -- the current US standard rifles (M16A2
 VH>> and A4) are burst control weapons, not full auto.

 DB> Vern, you're all over the board, here. You crapped on the M-16 for

 DB> throw out that they're not _really_ full auto, but 3 round burst. It

 DB> arguement's sake.

Vern's not arguing.

The M-4 and M-16 in their current issue modes are semi and 3-round burst
only.  /American/ /Rifleman/ did a feature on current military hardware,
and has all their facts right.

Vern's right, you're wrong.
