Well, look on the bright side. The only thing missing from this story is the typical media line: "Thousands of bullets could be fired in 2 seconds with the single pull of the trigger".
Or the line which I actually heard one cop on tv say: "you couldn't hunt deer with them (he was referring to an AR-15), If you hit one there would be nothing left".
And to think most states will not allow the .223 round to be used in deer hunting because it will leave noting, oops!, they outlaw it because it isn't powerful enough to insure a clean kill.
