@RoflTank M4s have a full-auto option for the bang switch.

Try firing an M4 auto

And hitting more than your first few shots

Then the 2nd pull only fires 1

If you need to fire one full auto the enemy is too close.

Wrong

>Every marine in WW2 had a machine gun when they were getting actual army handmedowns

nigga what

Oh and if you run out of ammo it also resumes the previous burst

Your weapon is just inadequate

Which is shit

Nic, the MArines handed out BARs like candy in WWII

The problems you are bitching about are nothing new Rofl.

Have you ever fired an M4

Literally the highest concentration of automatic firepower of any branch

They suck

M16 was golden

Because M16 was purpose built

They built a gun around a bullet around a gun with a single mission profile

Purpose built for the US Army to jew out on cleaning kits, sure.

the whole cleaning kit thing was the Pentagon being salty at the replacement of their baby the M14

I qualified expert on an m4

The M14 also being shit

A LOT of good GIs died so the Army bean counters could save 30 cents a piece. That is how much it would have cost to give soldiers cleaning kits with the M16A1.

The army trains for 300m

On the m4

Also
>prong muzzle break grabbing all the tripwires

You don't have to hit the 300m targets to qualify expert

There's only two 300m targets out of 40

We're off topic though

Newer more radically designed rifles can and do outperform modern "good-enough" weapons

You qualify on single shot of course

By your logic the Abrams is fine despite being 40 years old and 20 years past due for shelving

Reminder that the US is the only reason the Bongs did not have a reasonably good bullpup rifle in an intermediate cartridge decades sooner than they did, because of "Muh Stopping Power" autism.

The m4 I was issued had semi and 3 round burst

Yeah they decided to remove FA for some reason

It was originally 3rd burst

The new M4A1 is the auto

It's a carbine, literally the ass-baby of an SMG and an AR, why not give it FA for CQC?

Keep in mind the OG m4 also had a fixed carry handle

But why? I was under the impression that the reason M4s were adopted is because they needed to have more volume of fire in tight spaces?
