Do the sights really make that much difference for fast shooting?

Are you kidding me?

These armchair Rambo-esque pretenders are a bunch of idiots of the "spray & pray" type. "Spray & Pray" = hunker down in your foxhole, raise your weapon over your head (horizontally) and let fly on full auto.

Idiots!

Rate of fire means nothing when you are not hitting anything.

BTW, I have fired 5 rounds from an M-14 (or M-16) from the prone position, changed magazines and fired another 5 rounds all in 60 seconds, Standing to Prone. I hit the 12" bullseye with all 100 rounds. From 300 yards.

Well aimed fire is the only thing that counts, unless the enemy is doing an on-line assault and is less than 20 meters from your position.

Yeah. I quit reading at that point. I never get through one of these dumba$$ AM articles. Good for a laugh sometimes though.

I’ve got a pair of those Ishapore Enfields. Man do they shoot sweet. 300 yards and every one in a paper plate. Slickest bolt gun I’ve ever fired.

Proofreading is our friend!

It should have read “all 10 rounds”.

Man, did I sound like the pompous idiot!

An extra zero or two here and there and the next thing you know, they’ll have me writng the Federal budget.

Million? BILLION? TRILLION?
