Or,most normaly, the such a selector allows only to put the weapon to a "safe" position? I have the same doubt about the automatic rifles listed in the rulebook.

Thanks in advance!

The M-2HB is weird in having that dial for safe or semiautomatic -- most machineguns and and a lot of SAW-type weapons offer only safe or fire. (BTW, correct me if I'm wrong -- the new QCB kit for the M-2HB that the US is fielding also eliminates that selective capability?)
