As an avid firearms enthusiast (err, gun nut!) who has fired the Beretta on numerous occasions (though I do not yet own one), I applaud your (...) (23 years ago, 27-Nov-01, to lugnet.cad)

I *almost* did an MP5 in full-auto...but then I looked at the cost of the ammo multiplied by the magazine capacity divided by the rounds per second -- and decided to rent a nice slow semi instead. :-, (...)

You can see this in the different recoil between pistols & rifles - even though the barrel is off-centre (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
