What is your dream fiery-arm? Assume you can afford ammo for it.

[Dadof#4]

This is a thread for you to go crazy with,,,
Not crazy like in hijacking it for other purposes,,,
But go crazy in the fantasy that you can afford the gun and to feed it.

Mine would be the FN-P90.

H&H used to have a full-auto one in their rental stable,,,
For 3 (maybe 4) years in a row I rented one,,,
And purchased 200 rounds to shoot.

This was my annual birthday present to myself.

Anyways, back to the P-90.

I've read articles that describe it as the perfect Personal Defense Weapon (PDW),,,
To tell the truth I find it impossible for me to disagree with them.

Small in size,,,
50 round mags,,,
A small but "zippy" cartridge,,,
No magazine protruding below the rifle,,,
And I do love the fact that it ejects towards the bottom.

It's relatively small when compared to other carbines of it's ilk,,,
But I found the ergonomics of the thing to be ideal for me,,,
When I raised it to my shoulder everything fell into place.

Even on full auto it was not difficult to keep it on target.

I first saw the rifle on the Sci-Fi series, Stargate Atlantis,,,
At first I thought it was just some kind of mocked-up prop gun,,,
But I finally did a search and found out that it was a real life fiery-arm.

It was my internet search that had me stumble upon H&H's rental list,,,
People that have never fired a full-auto rifle have no idea,,,
Just how fast one can blow through 200 rounds.

Anyways, I fell in love with the little thing,,,
And even though I could afford one without too much pain,,,
I could never afford to feed the thing enough to make it a worthwhile purchase.

But Dang!

The urge to own one was very tempting.

H&H doesn't have the P-90 on their rental list anymore,,,
Which is probably a good thing now that I'm retired on a fixed income.

I'll just have to be satisfied with my little CZ-512 Carbine,,,
And a 25 round magazine for blasting "Wraith".

I knew two guys thru the years with American 180s. First guy I just ran into at a pond I would go fishing at. Second guy let me fire it once. Fun but I would have to have to feed it. Even 22 gets expensive when it is fun to shoot.

Full auto H&K MP5SD. Got to shoot a rental one and first time I pulled the trigger I though the safety was still on. Nope, fired 5 rounds. It was just that quiet and smooth.
