Why american military rifles dont have ability to use em in full auto? m16a1 doesnt count cause old, m27 iar doesnt count cause its ar, m16a3 doesnt count cause only navy used them, m4a1 can count by ive read somewhere only 101st and 82nd guys get them. Also rangers and their scars dont count too.
I need us military guy who've read/learned some manuals to quote em. Wanna know how official military explains it. Ive also read that m16 can shoot full mag little bit faster than ak.

It's the cult of the American Rifleman.

Shooting anything more than controlled bursts is a "waste of ammo".

One shot, one kill, Ruskie.

Also, by the time you're done reading this sentence, 50 million of your cells will have died and been replaced.

because 11's dont need full auto. it's just a waste of ammo.

Conscripts in Vietnam wasted ammo with full auto fire and blind fire. Putting strain on ammo supply in the field.

>>30308830
its not true actually, us military wasted shitload of ammo to killl one target in all conflicts since ww1(if not earlier)
>>30308845
you can still do it with 3 round burst. supressive fire isnt shit, it really works.

The idea is conserving ammo, that an average soldier wouldn't be able to put full auto to good use and just waste his rounds.

Thing is, most fighting is done on semi-auto anyway, and it really isn't hard to train yourself to do controlled bursts without a burst cam.

Also, the Americans do have full-auto guns in general service, the M4A1 does not fire in burst.

If they move on to a M16A5 it'd be interesting to see what the FCG will be like, if burst is still seen as a good idea.

>>30308817
This too. Though it's not like you can't suppress on semi-auto if necessary.
>>
>>30308873
Bullshit. Stop making up statistics. Jesus Christ, you fucking kids spread so much nonsense.
>>
>>30309057
i am not making it up, calm down please. it really took lots of ammo to kill 1 enemy in all modern conflicts, eespecially if we are talking about small arms.

do you really think this only applies to the us?
>>
>>30310517
no, why do u think so?
>>
>>30308817
To be fair, I wouldn't trust an uncontrolled burst.
>>
>>30310785
Then don't fire off an uncontrolled burst.
