"..."I have an arsenal of weapons, ...

He's been a citizen of three (well, two and a half) English-speaking countries and still doesn't know the King's English.

An 'arsenal' is where arms are manufactured, and I don't think he's in the arms-manufacturing business. The place where they're stored in bulk is an armory ,not an arsenal.


Jerry Miculek shows him how it's done:

Also, it isn't sold or advertised as a "sniper" rifle. Barret makes other arms that are so advertised and marketed, but the .50 BMG is sold as an anti-materiel rifle.

Hey @elonmusk you want me to introduce you to the man who invented that gun? Mr Ronnie Barrett?

Good for Elon - nice comparison between him and the drug addicted whore-monger son of Biden who trashed a gun in a waste can near an elementary school...

Six shots fired in 23 seconds is not a machinegun, especially since each shot was initiated with a separate trigger pull.

My old M60 hog would have put out 40-150 (depending on sustained vs cyclic rate of fire) in the same interval.
