Auto to burst question..

[Icarry2]

I was curious if I have a full auto M16, (safe, semi, full) can I convert it to a 4 way select fire (safe, semi, full, burst) or would that mean I had to re-form and apply for another stamp?

IANAL, but I would think that once it fires full auto, it doesn't make a hill of beans difference if it fires burst also. More than one bullet per pull of the trigger makes it an NFA weapon. How many you get after more than one is beside the point.

^ This would be my guess too, but it is just that. A guess. I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn last night, so I have no way to tell for sure.

More than one shot per trigger pull is a machine gun regardless if it is two or two thousand.

A MG is a MG is a MG- modifying rate of fire or shots per pull won't require a new stamp. And why would it - you're not changing the fact that it's a MG.

The 4 position M16 FCG has been around for years and is 100% legal to put in a registered MG. I personally think the red tag is kinda tacky, but to each his own.

Yeah the red tag would not be something I would install..

Thanks for the opinions, I figured as much.
