Re: Church Shooter Had Arsenal
If that's an arsenal, then I'm the envy some 3rd world countries. The bad part is, misinformed people actually believe that anything more than one gun and one bullet is an arsenal.

Re: 50K shots to 1kill
Viet Nam was 2200 rds per kill with full auto 16s, now it's 50,000, and with three rounds bursts? Something is wrong with that number. I don't believe it.

If you want to make something for a 52, why not firing pins? That is always a hot item. Threaded barrels is not a good idea.
