Paul,

The full quote is, "I haven't got the faintest idea, my mind doesn't work along those lines, but if it turns you on."

Why cut the last bit off?

As regards my speed with firearms, I'm by no means as fast as many of my peers, ans I'm slowing down with age but I've mentioned it to shew just how stupid is the anti-gun faction in their portrayal of the Adler lever action shotgun as being some super fast 'weapon of mass destruction'.
The truth is it's a bit of mass produced Turkish junk that would never have sold well had it not been for the free advertizing provided by Gun Control Australia and the Greens and easily duped politicians.
The Adler and other lever action shotguns are now being offered by gun stores all across the country, just do a Google.

Is Mise, I think the last bit is cut off because just about any comment turns Paul on, into his unreasonably critical state of mind or attitude.

At least, Paul1405, I don't poke my nose into just about every subject raised on this site.

Bangstick was a brand name for a 2 inch long magnum cal barrel fitted on a a one metre long aluminium tube with a rubber sling.
Just having that self defence while working underwater helped keep heart beat down, instead of it racing and sharks sensing the fear like a savage dog can.

Some people wear safety helmets at work.
My work these days includes whether or not there is enough seafood food even for sharks.

Some people cannot comprehend that humans have made sharks more hungry and also less able to see properly in the now algae riddled green water.

Some people don't want to see why other people may sometimes need defence. Some people don't want to see anything except their own uninformed views.

"Why cut the last bit off?" Was not relevant to the question.

At least, Paul1405, I don't poke my nose into just about every subject raised on this site. Judging by your shark post we should be thankful for small mercies.

With time you may become an adequate backstop for Is Mise, since the apparent departure from the forum of his faithful sidekick onthebeach. But like a bad penny he may turn up again.

Paul,

To save you asking the question again, I guess that if a machine gun fires 1,000 rounds a minute then it could, in theory, hit 1,000 people,or more, in a minute, however if the targets were Greens MPs who don't lie then it couldn't hit any

Is Mise,

You should be stoked, your man from the Shooters, Hooters, Farmers, Pizza Eaters Party has a chance of knocking off The Country hick in the Orange by-election, but you will do it with Labor Party preferences. Troy Grant the head of the hicks fell on his sward yesterday.

Baird is flabbergasted!

Did you know in WWI a machine gun bullet often killed two or three or even more men. Killed in a cross fire pattern. Shocking!

From the youtube, an oldie but a real nasty!

I cannot understand why an obviously intelligent human being would spend their time inventing such a monstrous machine.
p/s The Germans had the same gun invented by Maxim.

Vickers and Browning WWI machine guns.

Paul,

Thanks for those links, brought back some old memories!

The Brits had the Maxim as well, the Vickers is an improved Maxim, virtually the Maxim turned upside down to overcome some operating problems.

The invention of machine guns saved lives.

I see the Greens didn't do so well; portent of things to come?
