I think there is a court case that spell it out somewhere, hat tip to anyone that can find it, but the 2nd amendment applies to the standard modern infantry rifle, in this case an M4/M16 platform semi-automatic rifle with single/3-round burst options.
No, there is nothing written down, but it is assumed that since all the sections of the Bill of Rights protect individual rights, then that would be same.

There is no prohibition from buying F16s, tanks or even funding a battleship, if you so desired and had the funds.
