Which modes of fire does the M16a1 have?
Being an assault rifle, the M16A1 has two modes of select fire. It can either be fired in semi-automatic, or fully automatic. The M16A3 shares the same trigger group, while the M16A2 and M16A4 have semi-automatic and three-round burst modes.
Does the M16A2 have full auto option?
Yes and no. The M16A2 assault rifle has semi-automatic and three-round burst fire modes. Legally, three-round burst is considered to be fully automatic, as it uses the same principle as fully automatic fire. However, the M16A2 is not capable of allowing the user to hold down the trigger and empty the entire magazine, so it is not a true fully automatic weapon.

The M16A4 is a select fire weapon, but is limited to three round bursts, the same way the M16A2 is.
