i'm trying to remember where I read that but I can't remember.. it was a military news site of some sort...
it's possible that they said they are looking into going back to full auto, but haven't done it yet or it got shot down (sort of speak ehhe)
Yeah i read about the burst being more prone to failure too but most people aren't going to have that discipline when being shot at. I know if my life was in danger i'd want to send as much lead at the target as possible. Hell cops have some training and have still been known to unload way more rounds than are needed. IMO if you want full auto get the m249 hehe.

hk makes some neat guns, too bad the 416 wasn't used by the us armed forces.
