Yes. Troops are using 3 round bursts in firefights since that's the way most of the weapons operate. The M16A2 is NOT fully automatic, the internet to the contrary. Of course they also have belt fed .50 cal, 7.62, and 5.56 as well.
If you don't believe me, see if you can figure out what an 18Z5V is and take Chindo's word for it.
Chindo, I'm 38A5M and did the other one in 04. (Oh, and I still think victor's are a little disturbed....
)
