MG Shoot versus the Bourbon of the same name.
Oh! I got to shoot a Gattleling Gun in 45-70 a while back at Raauhaaugges or how ever you spell it in Norco many moons ago 10 rounds hitting some steel plate down range. Bang thunk bang thunk bank thunk etc. !!!

carebear said:Speaking from experience. Once you have a nice, legal, working machinegun (or cannon, or flamethrower) in your hands with a safe, legal place to shoot it, you will.
If you ever get to Tennessee in April or October.

Twitch said:As for the caliber debate a cop put it to me this way- imagine yourself in a room. 6 knifeweilding assailants will pass through the door every 15 seconds. You have 6 rounds. Would you rather have a .45 proven manstopper or something else like a 9mm?
Jovan said:I... don't think you want to use anything like .50AE for self defence.
************Twitch said:.44 Mag and other high speed calibers go through people and often cause suprisingly little immediate damage not to mention the going through the wall and you neighbors wall.
***Twitch said:The shotgun myth is overrated too. At room-size distances there is virtually no spread and you have to aim. Long arms in a room scenario are too unweildy.

the hollow point helps unload the energy in the target. I have the ammo can't think of the name where it is a copper case and #8 bird shot suspended in epoxy. These will slow down most PCP crazed junkies but are non-lethal after passing thru a home wall. 2 of those followed by a variety of top name hollow points then ball for penetrating the car as my would be assalant try to get away.
