I used to keep one of those under my bunk in 'Nam. An earlier model no doubt.
Fortunately, I never needed to fire out 850 rounds with one trigger pull.

That's a really good way to test your equipment. I can't imagine how much all that ammo costs. Then again, I'm not paying for it and they probably didn't care either. It didn't jam too. | | | |

Nor is it the Browning 1917A1 with it's record of over 28,000 rounds of continous fire for 48 minutes.

7.62X51 Nato currently goes for between $500 to $650 per 1K.
I just bought 1K for my war rifles but that'll last me a couple years.

And to prove how macho you are, after firing reach down and grab that barrel and yell "Kowabunga!"

Nope, but I saw a newbie grab a .50 barrel after about 200 rounds, it was very instructive (and a 9.6 on the Ouchometer). Quote:
