which shoots five-inch long bullets

No doubt a very long receiver and a specially drilled and milled chamber to accept the 5 inch long bullet it shoots, through vests and stuff.

Yeah, you have to laugh at the stupidity and ignorance. One of my favorite desk trinkets is a once fired and polished .50 case with a .50 slug slipped into the neck.

Nice to gaze at it and contemplate the recoil of that much powder launching a bullet that large. But the slug is only about 2.2 inches long, not 5, must be a varmint round.........

Yea, and it’s a great light weight highly mobile weapon choice when on the run from the fuzz...and that shoulder fired missile launcher is even less conspicuous...

Wow a five inch bullet! Bet that could go through a piece of plywood.

I guess one of the key requirements for “reporters” assigned to stories concerning firearms is to know absolutely nothing about firearms. But then, that’s been the history of the media here, regardless of the subject -— up to and including politics.

“...5 inch long bullet...”

I have in front of me a 50 caliber machine gun cartridge. It measures 5 1/2 inches. Are they talking about a rifle made to shoot a 50 caliber machine gun cartridge? That would have one hell of a kick to it!

I have fired 50 cal machine guns, and thank God they were anchored down. Recoil from my 12 ga pistol grip shooting 00 or slugs is a lot for me to handle. I can’t imagine shooting a 50 cal, 5 inch cartridge from a rifle.

And yes, Dorner is some what bigger, and a lot younger than me...still...
