Can a civilian Colt AR-15 shoot 5.56 military grade ammunition?

How many bullets does a AR-15 hold?

One round in the chamber, and (normally) 20 or 30 rounds in the magazine. However, there are magazines that hold 5, 10, 40, 45, 90, and 100 rounds of ammunition, each with varying degrees of reliability. It also depends on what round that particular AR-15 is chambered for.
