I know enough about guns to know Bill O’Reilly knows nothing about guns.
As I watched his show I was screaming at the tv screen. He really showed what a dumbass he is.

Bill O’ lives inside a paper sack. Very few in the media have any conceptual understanding of firearms. The most abused word used today is assault weapon. I would bet that very few people in the media could properly identify an actual assault weapon. As described in the article in order for a firearm to be classified “assault weapon” it must have a selector switch (M-16’s the military cousin of the AR-15 has a selector switch) and depending on the firearm could fire full auto, or possibly 3 round burst with 1 pull of the trigger or single shot. M-14’s (most) magazine fed were either full auto or single depending on selector switch position. Most M-16’s magazine fed today are single or 3 round burst selectable. There are very few firearms that use clips, the M-1 Garand used clips and was semiautomatic only.
