Having an even higher rate of fire makes it even more dangerous. Granted, it is less accurate fire, but that is why it matters.

What is irrelevant is when gun nuts go, but only military riffles have mode selector (a favorite talking point). All of them do...it's just the modes of fires that are available.

I have had fun with the idiots trying to dazzle with terminology.
