Yes. The M4A1 is a variant of the M4 carbine that replaces the three-round burst mode with fully automatic fire. Both rifles can also fire in semi-automatic mode.

It really depends on the situation: The M4a1 carbine is often used by counter terrorist on indoor operations because of their small size and rate of fire. The M4 has a burst fire mode rather than an automatic fire mode. It is very effective in urban settings. The M16 is amazingly accurate and lighter than an AK47. Usually every squad or so has a back up M16a4 incase they are facing an enemy at a long range. Personally I would take an M4a1
The MAC-10 submachine gun typically features a single mode of fire, which is fully automatic. In this mode, it can continuously fire rounds as long as the trigger is held down. Some variants or modifications may allow for a different mode, but the standard MAC-10 does not have a semi-automatic option.
It is capable of semi-auto or 3 round burst mode. However the M4A1 and Diemaco (now Colt Canada) C8 do have a full auto fire mode, rather than the three round burst.
Automatic firearms work with a kind of "manual conveyor belt" mechanism. Tapping the trigger will fire a single round, akin to semi-auto fire. Holding the trigger activates a small set of gears that turn at a remarkable rate, ejecting an empty shell and replacing it with a fresh round at a continuous rate. Semi-auto doesn't have that same mechanism, or it is rendered inactive in semi-auto fire mode. The rate of fire is determined by how quickly multiple rounds are shot, or how quickly the gears turn. Examples of auto fire weapons are the SAW and M4A1, the latter having a semi-auto fire option.
NXL mode on paintball markers is the mode used by the National X-ball League. When in NXL mode the marker fires semi automatic for the first 3 trigger pulls, after that the gun will fire Full-Automatic if the trigger is held. NXL is capped at 15 Balls Per Second.
Like any professional sane soldier from any where around the world, the US Marines prefer the semi-automatic rate of fire.
Yes, the AK-47 is capable of rapid fire. It is designed to operate in both semi-automatic and automatic modes, allowing for quick successive shots. In automatic mode, the weapon can fire at a rate of approximately 600 rounds per minute, making it effective for both suppressive fire and close-quarters combat. However, the rapid fire capability can lead to decreased accuracy over sustained fire due to recoil and barrel heat.
