Google Search results for select fire content in the early to mid 2010's were rife with images like this that made automatic fire control seem like Kraut space magic. Throughout the 2000's, burst fire ratchets were standard for the American military because of the M16A4 Rifle and M4 Carbine. Boomers with pre-MG ban shit sticks also had a monopoly on select fire AR-15's so the online gunsphere was operating on an information deficit about them. I remember being nosearz and getting excited about Hollis v Holder, asking my local gunsmith if he knew how to convert AR's should the lawsuit pan out. Said he did but I was confused when he described milling and drilling receivers for local PD. I asked him, "Doesn't conversion require machining a separate component to drop in the receiver?" He told me "Nah– I'd be doing it the right way." That was the day I began to learn "drop in auto sears" "lighting links" and "Swift links" are all fake and gay

The example pictured isn't even mil spec. It's the "four-way" from the CAR-15 catalogue that not even the military was retarded enough to adopt after fucking with them in the 60's. DPMS arms did a run of them for some reason so Boomers with "transferrable" receivers bought these shits up because they're brain dead or something
