This reference manual provides a historical and technical overview of AR-15 and M16 fire control systems, including detailed discussions of their design differences and operating principles. Topics include the fundamentals of full-auto conversion mechanisms, comparisons of M16 and AR-15 components such as the hammer, trigger, bolt, and bolt carrier, as well as numerous technical illustrations explaining these differences. The manual also examines drop-in auto sears from a historical and mechanical perspective and includes machinist-style drawings that were originally published for educational reference.
