Sounds about right for full auto according to specs.

A fully automatic AR-15 can shoot off 800 rounds per minute, but a semiautomatic can only shoot off as many rounds as the number of times the trigger is pulled. But if a magazine is used then the shooter would have to load a new magazine when the magazine capacity has been exhausted. So perhaps someone really proficient, they might get off around 180 rounds in a minute.
Of course this was not an AR-15 being used, so this whole discussion is as useless as Alan Grayson is.
To: Kaslin
So Alan.....why did the cops arrive..and nothing was done for hours?
Lot's of your brothers were killed....
What happened there???

Yes it is a ridiculous lie ... but it will be repeated and the majority of brain dead “Americans” will believe it.
Already there are people at my work saying that “maybe we should ban these guns”. These are people who use to be neutral on the subject.
I believe this time the Marxist pols and their “media” lap dogs will be able to convince enough people to put pressure on their elected officials to get something through ... or at the very least ... after the election Oahole will just direct the ATF to place all semi-autos on the “ban” list or list them as NFA weapons.
Remember the VAST majority of voters are idiots and are not like the primary voters who (on the Donald's side) understand the true dangers this country faces.

No, he meant to say 70,000.
He must have misspoken.
What’s worse, though, is that the rounds are armor-piercing, and can go through both sides of an Abrams tank.

When Grayson appeared on the House floor with his famous “Die Faster” posterboard in support of ObamaCare, who knew that he actually borrowed it from the VA?

were supplied with ammo that made their bolt carriers cycle too fast and they didnt have cleaning kits.It's been many years, but IIRC, in order to use the direct impingement action, Stoner was very specific about the powder that needed to be used (I believe it was ball powder,) as well as specifying that the chamber had to be chrome lined.
Well, the "best and the brightest" in McNamara's DoD decided that the military had all this left-over powder available from WW-II and Korea, and that it would be cheaper to leave the chrome lined chambers off - That, among the other things you mentioned, led to Stoner's masterpiece being a disaster for the troops in Viet Nam.

If can fire one round a decade it is too offensive for the average liberal doofus.
