But, I've been paying my taxes, so I can't afford the Ducati, the Maryland-red barn, the Volvo
diesel powered trawler, etc., etc.

Life's a bitch when you pay your taxes.


Maybe if you didn't have that big pig of a truck you hardly ever use,
eh? It's getting a bit chilly for motorbike riding.

Not at all. Took the Goose to WalMart and Giant just a while ago. If there's no snow or ice on the
ground, the temperature doesn't matter.

You failed to mention the Ducati, the barn, the trawler, etc.

The truck gets used when I need the truck.


Ahh, Wal-Mart. Did you tip the underpaid abused staff?

When they rung him up he didn't quibble about paying taxes, unlike you.

Fair enough, but I never said anything near "no one needs a 30 round

were. Always thought bullets were more rounded.

We were talking about the advantages of a 30 clip and agreed, it's just

Either way, it was interesting to talk so someone who had so much

When you absolutely lose it and decide your best way out is to shoot up a
school or movie theater or dirtbike race and then commit suicide by cop,
you'll probably want a fully auto, milled receiver AK47 with a 100-round magazine.

And you would probably kill less than with the semi auto. After the gun
climbs and puts most of the rounds in the ceiling, most will still be
alive.

That is really trigger discipline. You are supposed to fire short
bursts. In fact the current M-16 only fires 3 rounds at a trigger pull
in auto.

Didn't know that. They've changed it. Used to fire a whole clip in about half a second.

Bull****.
.

Well, I guess it really took a couple seconds to go through 30 rounds - but it seemed like half a
second!

It ia bout 2.2 seconds to fire off 30 rounds on full auto with an M16.

Sounds like fun but yuck... anything but yellow.

Scott, I'll make it easy. If I'm referring to you I quote you and reply
directly to you. Otherwise relax.

I don't like that car in yellow, or maybe it's the shade. I've had two yellow Mustangs, and liked
that car in that color.

I'm sure when you sold them the buyer was happy with her purchase. ;)

Hold it sideways.

So the rappers and gangsta's have it right?

If they're holding their M16's sideways while on full automatic, then they were well trained in the
slums and ghettos run by Democrat mayors!

One of the selling points Stoner sold to the government with the AR
was the straight line from the barrel to the center of the stock, to
limit barrel rise. That is why the sights are so high, on top of the
handle. The AK does a similar thing.

They found out pretty quickly a full auto M14 was virtually useless
off hand. After a couple shots, you had an anti-aircraft gun

Not if you hold it sideways!
