There's also the rotation problem you encounter with every automatic weapon. You have to keep 'em pulled down, or "up" ~ else you're just firing over their heads, or into the dirt.

Learning to properly handle your automatic weapon takes a heafty expense in ammunition.

A barrel of gasoline is much better.

I know about the automatic’s “pull” tendency; which is why I was suggesting the PS-90, the semi-auto/’civilian’ model, it has a good reflexive sight and a 50-round magazine. That *should* be enough to deal with a gang of 20, even assuming that it takes 2 hots to put them out-of-action (which is really overestimating their toughness and/or underestimating the rifleman’s accuracy).
