[QUOTE="craigkindlesmith, post: 892265, member: 9643"] Selector switch. Not "full-auto" switch. Four stage selectors will get you to 3 round burst, between semi and full, and still fall in the same category you're talking about without being "full-auto". And some three stage selectors max at at 3 round burst. Not trying to be a smart@**. At all.... honest. Just trying to make sure we're on the same page during our discussion. You're not picking on me. At all. It's a difference of opinion is all. As far as the AR-15's being always being a sporting rifle.... I'll argue that. I'll argue that NO rifle was originally designed to be a sporting rifle. Just like the other contributer said. Almost every one of todays bolt actions are built off the 1903 Springfield. Which was indeed the precursor to the M1 Garand for infantry troops in the U.S. Other bolts are "Mauser Actions" designed directly off the actions of the Mauser rifles German troops carried through WWII. M-16 is a Vietnam era military "assault weapon". The AR-15 was a legal answer to soldiers coming back from Vietnam to that wanted to own their M-16. Hell they were getting shot at in the jungle on day, and home in bed the next. They lived with that weapon through hell, now they get hom and don't have it anymore. Thus the AR-15.

As far as the "ignorant" part.... well ignorant is a relative term. lol Now that I've gotten this thread WAY off track...... I appologise. Magazine restrictions are dumb. They should just be gotten rid of. [/QUOTE]
