Are the internal parts of an M16 rifle and an AR-15 rifle interchangeable? Can someone drop the guts of an M16 into an AR-15 and make it fully automatic or selective-fire? -
Hypothetically what would happen if an M16 had an AR15 semi auto selector switch, but the rest of the parts were full auto? Would the rifle be stuck in safe and semi
