That is correct.  I just want to add that I could not remove the safety to a single shot position as I would have preferred, because the folding butt of the AK does not allow you to do it when it is folded.  You are only able to push it down if the butt is open and hence it was on automatic when I used it.  I fired at him and as, if I recall correctly, subsequent evidence indicated, I actually struck his weapon itself, putting it out of order.
