The terrorists' weapons were certainly full auto. They do not rely on "gun shows" and other such nonsense to gather their weapons, they supply their cells from the same sources they supply their paramilitaries. If you read up on these style attacks (Mumbai, Nairobi, etc), a great deal of planning and logistical set up goes into these attacks, they aren't dropping off guys and expecting them to arm themselves on the local economy.

There is really only one market for semi-auto AK pattern rifles, and even though many of them are made overseas, you are unlikely to find a semi-auto AK anywhere else but the US. It's just as easy -- easier in fact -- for ISIS, Iran, and other sponsors to get the standard (full auto) AKs.
