    ACTS and how it leads to PROVE. THE VITAL FOUR ACTS OF FIREARMS SAFETY * Assume every firearm is loaded. * Control the muzzle direction at all times. * Trigger finger must be kept off the trigger and out of the trigger guard. * See that the firearm is unloaded – PROVE it safe. PROVE * Point the firearm in the safest available direction. * Remove all cartridges. * Observe the chamber. * Verify the feeding path. * Examine the bore. And finally never ignore the manual - not in this case. :)

    The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick

    And if you ever need to BLAST someone*... * Bait them into starting a fight with you * Lead them to an out-of-the-way place, with no witnesses * Ask them if they're feeling lucky (This is the most important part!) * Shoot them at least five times, then once more for good luck * Tell the cops it was self defense Stay tuned for more acronyms to help you survive the inevitable TRIAL, followed by an X-rated acronym tutorial on how to survive in PRISON. * I am not a lawyer, and this is in no way meant to be considered legal advice... Or any kind of advice... Seriously, what's wrong with you?

                          Ah the memories... I was at a range (Lydd in Kent if memory serves) and was firing an SMG (one of these[^]), and inadvertantly put it to Automatic instead of Rounds. Wasted a magazine of 30 rounds in seconds and got a punch in the face for my trouble. Worth it though!

                                "or you could, ya know, just" check before you open your big keyboard, and discover that Abhinav (an Indian name, so there's a clue) is Indian, not American. Further research would have found that India has reasonably stringent gun law. Even further research might have led you to discover your shift key, and a spelling checker...

                                  Going off topic a bit (hey - it's the lounge). The most recent Xmas special - flying fish and soppy stereotypical sentimentality - arguably the worst episode I've ever seen. How'd it go down in UK ?

                                    "or you could, ya know, just" check before you open your big keyboard, and discover that Abhinav (an Indian name, so there's a clue) is Indian, not American. Further research would have found that India has reasonably stringent gun law. Even further research might have led you to discover your shift key, and a spelling checker...

                                      Probably was accidentally left on full automatic. No big deal. (after the first 5 or 10 rounds, it stops hurting)

                                        I hope so. It was so cool that these guys[^] used them. Just remove the magazine and stick a few bits of plastic on them et voilà, futuristic space gun.
