Going by what my son and others who were there have told me, most of the insurgents and also the uniformed military were rather poor marksmen. The majority seem to believe "the bullet will hit if Allah wills it".

The guys firing semi auto at our guys generally tried to aim, which made them a more dangerous threat, deserving of special ...attention.

I’ve never directly used one, but it’s my understanding that the safety is similar to a M-16 . You have three positions - safe , fire and forced reset positions .m

That said I don’t think all the force reset triggers manufacturers do it exactly the same . I know one of them has the three settings not sure if that’s the rare breed one .
