Not possible. It would require re-making the receiver, in order to fit in the additional parts. By the way, making or possessing an unregistered machine gun in the US is punished by 10 yrs in a Federal prison, and a fine of $250,000. Not a good idea to try this.

If you hold your finger on the AR15 trigger will it simultaneously shoot bullets?

No. The AR15 is a semi-automatic firearm. Pull trigger, it shoots one time. Pull trigger again, it shoots- one time. The M16 rifle is capable of fully automatic fire- pull trigger, it fires until you release trigger or run out of ammo. But that is different from the AR15. Note- in the US, fully automatic firearms (machine guns) have been strictly regulated since 1934. You cannot buy machine guns by walking into a gun shop, gun show, or on line. To legally have one transferred to you requires approval of the Federal government, a background check that includes photos and fingerprints, approval of your local Chief of Police, and paying a $200 transfer tax.

Brownells.com sells a m-16 full auto and burst fire sear and disconnector isn't that illegal?

Anyone can buy the M16 small parts - but it is illegal to use them to create a fully automatic weapon without the correct NFA paperwork. Adding these parts to a semi-automatic AR15 will not make it fully automatic, and some parts will not fit the semi-automatic lower receiver at all.


Is it illegal to own a fully automatic AR-15?

Depends on where you are. In the US, it is possible for a private citizen to legally own a fully automatic firearm in most states. The transfer of such as gun to you must be approved by your Chief of Police, and you will need to supply fingerprints and photos to the BATFE (and a $200 tax) and undergo a background investigation. You will also need a large wallet to hold the money to pay for that AR15. A LEGAL, registered AR15 sells for about $25,000 today.

Are you allowed o hunt with an assault rifle in the state of colorado?

There is no legal definition of "assault rifle". If you mean an AR15 style rifle, then it depends on the rifle, and what you are hunting. An AR15 firing .223/ 5.56mm can be used for small game. For big game, the rifle may not be capable of holding more than 6 rds of ammo, and must be .24 caliber or larger, with 1000 ft lbs of energy at 100 yards. The AR15 in .223 will not meet those standards. A larger AR, such as the AR10, could meet them. No fully automatic firearms may be used for hunting.
