I might oppose that too, if anyone had proposed it. Fortunately, AR-15s aren't "combat rifles" any more than a Glock is a "combat pistol".
Just wanted to point out that you may be restricted to semi-auto in an AR-15, but the City of Chicago can legally buy the brand new M-4 in full auto. It might very well be an assault weapon they are buying and issuing.

As a general rule, the cops get semi-auto too, but it is not necessarily that way. I am sure the SWAT team uses full auto.
