 From my reading of postings there seems to be some confusion about "burst".
Burst is a full-auto function, however it is full-auto with a limit. The M16
burst control can be deleted  a couple differant ways. The way sugested by
the Marine Armours manual is to use the standard M16 disconnector. For those
wishing to learn more about the burst unit I would suggest U.S. Marine Corps
Technical Manual TM 05538C-23&p/2 section 3-21. { The lastest copys of this
manual that I have seen has the same information, however the pictures aren't
of the same high quality.}
