      "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 ?

            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.

                    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!

                                      Yes, Sterling it was, and the Range was in Lydd, in the Romney Marshes, somewhere on the south coast. Back in my Army Days.

                                          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!

                                          Same happened with me, the good thing I had only 12 rounds in the cartridge and they all got out for just above a second. It turned out afterwards that out lieutenant happens to know my mom personally, at least regarding his words.
