I heard on ABC news that the Navy Seals used "Gyro Stabalized" rifles

I've never seen such a rifle..anyone know what she was talking about?

It was either the best shots on earth, or we have not heard the whole
story of the Pirate shots.

What is the best Pirate killing rifle?

Joe


It was probably either the M82A1 .50 cal or the MK11 .30. Probably
the M82A1 because it would punch through the hull or spray shield if
necessary. The only stabilization is in the reporters minds. They
keep going in a straight line when the story curves into territory
they don't understand. I would not be surprised to learn they had
multiple shooters per pirate or that each pirate had multiple hits.
