That abbreviated *pistol* would be way too much for my wrists and forearms.

The M82A1 is nothing more than a 12ga recoil, IMO. So sweet and easy to "reach out and touch" anyone, anywhere, anytime.

I remember reading about a Canuck who borrowed an M82A1 from a US Spec-Ops soldier in Afghanistan, and capped an Islamaniac on a motorbike at 2500 meters. 2500 METERS!!

My best shot was 1550 meters, and I thought I was hot-shit. Well, they trained us right............FRegards
