A man walked into the Wrightsville Country Store wearing a dark jacket and a Groucho Marx mask, pointed a loaded single-automatic pistol in Headstrong's face and demanded cash.

Is a "single-automatic pistol" less dangerous than, say, an "assault rifle" at close range?

I've never heard the expression "single-automatic pistol" in my life.

Is a "single-automatic pistol" a pistol that only poor folks can afford?

I just wonder if it was a miss spell and should have been “semi”. Just a thought

That’s right. It’d be two if dey has two in hand. And automatics are illegal aren’t they. Ohhhhh dey ment auto-loader pistol.

Sick of this too— can’t report properly what you don’t understand to begin with.
