There might be a few full auto M14s floating about, but they'd probably go for something in excess of $20K at a guess.

And anyone that has fired a M14 on full auto can attest that it is not a heck of a lot of fun and just about impossible to hit anything. The cost of the ammo you just wasted has to hurt as well

If there was an upside to the M16, it was that it could be controlled on full auto.

I hated the 3 round bursts on the AR15s, even.. kick wasn’t that bad.. but the range to target makes the biggest difference.. and with semi-auto (price not included), you keep your ammo much longer (so survive much longer).

Unless in training, and it was required, I always kept it on 1 shot.

BTW, 1 gun I would LOVE to shoot full-auto.. I believe it is called ‘mini’.. I think 2000 rounds per minute.. but I will probably never even see that in person in my lifetime :p

(BrrrrrP.... BrrrrrrrrP... Brrrrp {some target shredded into a billion pieces ;)} ) ;^D

BTW.. the only kick that actually hurt.. was a 30.06 .. (and the 12 gauge slugs >.<).. both left my shoulder purple for a week :p
