Hehe... My uncle told me that in Vietnam he tried out for SAW man and couldn’t control the M14 on full auto. it went
straight up in the air on him. So he laid prone and emptied another magazine. It drove him back about a foot in the dirt.

He quit trying. He was only about 140 lbs soakin wet.

I had an SKS that I decided one day to shoot a few round through, I had bought it and never stripped it down to clean the free floating firing pin, well it was full of enough crud that it went nearly full auto on me, every time I pulled the trigger I would get doubles or triples.
