Personally, I've not heard the term "automatic weapon" used yet. Do you not believe the M4 is indeed an assault rifle? Seems like most of the internet considers it one.queencitybuckeye;1858940 wrote:Just heard the first, highly unlikely reference to "automatic weapon". Only a matter of time before the equally (and intentionally) wrong term "assault rifle" is used.
Hard to take claims of wanting a discussion seriously when they can't wait to tell the same baldfaced lies.
The M4 is an automatic weapon (equipped for 3 round burst or full auto).salto;1858979 wrote:Personally, I've not heard the term "automatic weapon" used yet. Do you not believe the M4 is indeed an assault rifle? Seems like most of the internet considers it one.
I'll be surprised if it was an M4. Those are highly illegal for civilian use. The M4 is an automatic weapon, either fully or burst.salto;1858979 wrote:Personally, I've not heard the term "automatic weapon" used yet. Do you not believe the M4 is indeed an assault rifle?

Yes. Although, I thought the M4 did not have full auto. It has semi and 3 round burst.queencitybuckeye;1858983 wrote:The M4 is an automatic weapon (equipped for 3 round burst or full auto).
Are there reports that an M4 was the weapon used?
Link? The ones I've seen are saying AR-15 which is indisputably NOT an "assault weapon".salto;1858985 wrote:I agree and yes. Although, can a semi-auto version of the M4 still be considered an assault weapon?
Not arguing here, just what I've heard on CBS.queencitybuckeye;1858986 wrote:Link? .
The variant with full-auto capability is known as an M4A1.salto;1858985 wrote:Yes. Although, I thought the M4 did not have full auto. It has semi and 3 round burst.
Not by any definition I've ever heard except for politicians with an agenda.That said, even if a civilian version with only semi - is it still an assault weapon?
Other than it looks cool, why do you believe so many civilians want a military styled rifle? Even the semi auto version is designed to mimic the M4, which is for close-quartered "combat" situations.queencitybuckeye;1858990 wrote:

He probably wasn't expecting shots to be fired back at him by police. I imagine most of the shots fired were towards them, and not just people standing there.mcburg93;1859013 wrote:I am still dumbfounded how a guy planning on killing people, shoots fifty to sixty times(some of the reports have said this number) and only hit a few people and killing none. I would think you would practice with your gun first to know how to aim it and be somewhat accurate. Cant really have a killing spree if you do not kill people. On a serious note, I am glad there were only a few injuries and the gunman is now going to be plant food.
