I really did like when they adapted the M-16 to do three round burst fire. It really helped in combat situations to keep people from letting their adrenaline takeover in some situations.

There is only one draw back to three round burst if you let off the trigger before lol three round fire when you pull the trigger only what is left will cycle done that a couple of times, expecting three rounds and only one happens first time that happens throws you off and first thought is a jam

That was an excellent decision by the army. Single fire is good if you have time and the target in sight. If not 3 round burst is good.

Training on the M60 was to fire a burst of six at a time.
