Then it might as well be a Gatling gun.

Oh yeah, silly me. Why reinvent the wheel?

So that you can power your unpowered electrically driven gat when you are about to be overrun by Somalis...

Your idea was IMO a good one. :)

For the greatest list:

A fan of German firearms huh? I did a report of the guns of WW II last year specifically comparing and contrasting American and German guns like the Colt .45, Luger 9mm, M3 grease gun, Mp40...and included spent shells (not from WWII but of the same caliber) Got a 96 and enjoyed the research.

Yup, NYC is the worst place to live if you are at all a fan of firearms. Where is that gun store btw, i didnt know there was one in Coney. Believe me if you are at all interested in firearms at my age in NYC you are automatically considered a sick minded individual or a future serial killer!

What kind of variety do they have? Do you know of any range anywhere near Brooklyn that rents guns, that you don't have to be a police officer to shoot in?

I'm going to have to put up a picture of a land pattern musket. Any gun that is the front line issue for either the most powerful military on the planet or second most powerful (depending on how you feel about napolean and european land power)for over a century has to have something going for it.



Honestly the gun was just average to slightly above average in most catagories for its day. What it had though was for a flintlock good reliability and standard ammo and parts.

"indigenous military arm?" English literacy aside, who outside of the US designed all those M-16 and their variants?

I don't understand your question.
