Best Answer

AR-15 is a manufacturer's designation. When Armalite designated the rifle the AR-15, both fully automatic and semi auto only rifles were dubbed as such. M16 is a military nomenclature.

Now, the AR-15 rifles you can buy at your local gun store without having to obtain an NFA Class III permit - those are semi auto only.
