Wikipedia definition
2. Automatic rifleAutomatic rifle is a term generally used to describe a semi-automatic rifle chambered for a rifle cartridge, capable of delivering both semi- and full automatic fire. This "select-fire" capability, as well as the (general) use of magazine-fed rifle ammunition, differentiate it from other classes of automatic firearm such as the machine gun and submachine gun. In many cases, however, it simply describes a rifle capable of self-loading, but not capable of automatic fire (i.e. , semiautomatic).
