Typical nonsense from a gun phobe. Anyone with a little experience can tell those guns are fake. Based on where the magazine would go, it almost looks like they're CO2 guns. Really stupid, like gun phobes themselves.

You post a really poorly acted video with fake guns. :gag:

Here's a guy shooting an MPA 930 (of which I have several, but I must confess I haven't shot).

<<" (of which I have several, but I must confess I haven't shot).

WTF?"

I'm a collector mostly. Ammo is expensive, gas (petrol) is expensive, and it takes 45 minutes one way to get to a rural enough area to shoot. Sure there's one or two indoor ranges around here, but shooting paper gets boring. I like space to move around and set up targets, relax, hike around etc.

I buy guns for political purposes, i.e. the fun of buying something that government is TRYING to ban, or guns they've ALREADY banned once, but became legal again when the ban expired in 2004. It sounds weird, but when there aren't many places to shoot, a lot of guys do this, although I'll admit that most guys don't do this to the extent that I do.

By the way, in that previous video that I linked to, I'm almost positive I recognize that road and the area as the same place everyone around here goes shooting. If it is, then he got that gun at the same dealer that I got mine, because that dealer is the only one in the state who will carry those. I've tried to figure out WHY that is the case for years now. That gun is too "evil" for some gun dealers. Plus, most distributors won't carry "MACs" because of political correctness, as well as not knowing they're available.

Here's a cool video of a husband and wife shooting REAL full auto together.

Whatever. Any comments on those two live fire videos I posted? In the first one, that guy really shouldn't be so close to the road. I can't remember what the law says about that, but I KNOW he's too close.

striker, you're too far away from the road, try standing in it.

striker you are so dam complicated - are you not going to stand in the road for political purposes also? Or are you selectively against rules and regulations.

My computer can't load the second video, but I'll gladly comment on the first video. Bump-firing serves only one purpose - to make you look "cool." Just try landing all your bump-fired rounds on a silhouette target seven yards away, let alone placing them all in one quarter-sized hole. You have no control over your weapon during bump-firing, and that is downright irresponsible. If you want to blow through $8 worth of ammunition in five seconds, have at it; I doubt you'll be able to hit the broad side of a barn with more than two or three rounds.

EDIT: To clarify, my comments are in reference to bump-firing from the hip. Although I don't condone the practice, bump-firing can be done responsibly with rifles and carbines, from the shoulder, yielding accuracy comparable to that achieved with automatic rifles.

I don't know why the second one wouldn't load. Sometimes Google video is a giant pain because for some reason it insists on downloading NEW each time you start a new browsing session. You tube downloads it once and saves it either in cache or temporary internet files.

I didn't say anything good OR bad about bump firing. Visit my forum to see my response to that issue.

O.K. horribly acted. I just noticed that the fake guns they used look like they weigh a half ounce. LOL, go to the dollar store for shiny guns then make a really bad movie.
