Forgive me if If Im wrong here but doesnt the "C" in Glock 18c mean that its compensated? At least thats what its says in the wikipedia article. And judging by the picture there doesn't seem to be any compensators on it. If someone could just clarify that for me.

The Glock 18C has cuts in the barrel and slide making it internally compensated, therefore it has no need for an external comp. | |||

Glock 18c
Forgive me if If Im wrong here but doesnt the "C" in Glock 18c mean that its compensated? At least thats what its says in the wikipedia article. And judging by the picture there doesn't seem to be any compensators on it. If someone could just clarify that for me. Thanks
The Glock 18C has cuts in the barrel and slide making it internally compensated, therefore it has no need for an external comp.
m16s with 4 position selectors
There are m16s with a 4 position selector. Check retroblackrifle.com for more info on the models used it, mostly the CAR-15 family. Their use on an A3/A4 is dubious, but possible, since you can buy the parts from a number of places. The Chinese T91(m16 clone with short stroke piston upper) has a 4 position selector. The South Korean K series rifles also have this feature. So your desciption is inaccurate. --Zurak 47 20:21, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
Saiga 20K
In real life the Saiga shotguns are semi auto only, even the military models. Not full auto as you mention on this page. --Zurak 47 20:39, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
the saiga can be converted full auto in real life. the designers of this game know nothing about firearms at all.
tell me if im wrong
m16a1-vietnam era weapon: no forward assist, typically triangular handguard, full auto, different muzzle brake than current standard (maybe)
m16a2- the most iconic: cylindrical handguard, 3 rnd burst, forward assist, improved rear sights
m16a3 - same as a2, but with flatop upper and detachable carry handle
m16a4 - same as a3 but with Knights Armament battle rail system.
so....why is the m16a3 "mislabeled"?
Wrong.
M16- VN era, No forward assist, Triangular hand guard, Safe/Semi/Full, 3 prong flash hider.
M16A1- VN-1980s (up till early 2000 in some NG units), same as above with the addition of a forward assist, and birdcage flash hider.
M16A2- the one you are actually right about.
M16A3- Full auto version of the M16A2, adopted by the US Navy, effectively an A1 lower with an A2 upper.
M16A4- M16A2 with flat top receiver and removable carry handle.
And by design there is not and probably will never be an M16 that has a 4 position trigger group. Clones? yes, real M16? NO.
Also just because a weapon can be Jerryrigged to be full auto, does not mean that it comes that way from the factory. By your logic, we should also have the M1 Garand labeled as full auto as well because some people have modified them to be full auto and the military in the latter days of WWII made some full auto external magazine fed prototypes...
