It will depend on the design and caliber of the firearm. Basically a semi auto can fire as fast as you can pull the trigger (until the magazine is empty- and magazine size varies from 5 to 30 or more rounds). However, that is not aimed, accurate fire- you would be unlikely to hit much of anything. Aimed fire would be a maximum of about 15 rounds per minute. ACCURATE aimed fire. less than that- about 10 a minute. There have been world record holders (such as Bob Munden, who passed away last week) who could accurately fire 6 shots so fast they sounded like one- but those are very rare people. PS- Bob Munden, fastest man with a gun in the world- used a revolver, not a semi-auto.

How many rounds per secod could a browning 1919 fire?
The BAR has a selective fire switch, and could be set to either 300 rpm (5 per second) or 500 rpm (8.333... per second). Neither figure is really accurate though as it was fed by 20 round box magazines. And a good BAR man fired in short bursts. The recoil of the .30-06 rounds would throw off the aim after a few rounds, and tend to overheat the weapon.
