You should have seen the video of HK testing the M4 Carbine underwater against their 416's and 417's :lol: The M4 Just exploded and they had only the 1 on site :grin:

Is it just me, or is something like that just far too much fun to get rid of......?!! :lol: :lol:
Oh yes ! My glock 17 would go full auto if you released the trigger slowly after the first shot ! Great fun with 33 rd mags !

Never touched it though as soon after I had to hand all my pistols in to the police because of the ban. :cry:

Nearest I have got is with a 12 bore and a double discharge ... the first bird totally vapourised as I felt a slightly harder than normal kick, but there was nothing for the second.

The gun has been checked but nothing wrong - it has done it two or three more times and only when it is around -4c. But now seems to behave.
