Dude! SHUTUP for heaven's sake!
You are the most ignorant person I have ever witnessed.

Actually Frigidaire was owned by Electrolux and the US Dept. of Justice filed an anti-trust lawsuit against Electrolux to keep it from buying GE's appliance division in 2015.

I've seen him deny the existence of basic concepts. It's weird why he speaks so "knowledgeably" while being so demonstrably incompetent on any technical topic. (I will have to admit it sounds like maybe he has some electrical training so it's not like he's perfectly without any skill or ability...just not in most things he talks about).

It's more like using three bullets to kill one person with one bullet.

A real man would just wrestle the deer to the ground, strangle it, and watch the life leave its eyes
Just like a real man would walk to work or ride a bike instead of driving 10 miles each way and polluting the planet?

Soooo...both you and Sybil are correct? Fascinating!
Thanks for the link:
"The Department of Justice filed a civil antitrust lawsuit today seeking to block the acquisition of General Electric Company’s appliance business by AB Electrolux and Electrolux North America Inc., whose brands include Frigidaire. The department said that the $3.3 billion acquisition would combine two of the leading manufacturers of ranges, cooktops and wall ovens sold in the United States, eliminating competition that has benefited American consumers through lower prices and more options. According to the department’s complaint, purchasers in the United States spent over $4 billion on these major cooking appliances in 2014."

He goes off without even thinking. LIKE PARROTS THAT ARE TRAINED TO SAY THINGS, but have no idea what they are talking about!
Perfect moniker for him!

Don't shoot much, do ya?
Would you rather be hit by a .22 at 300 yards or a 7.62 NATO?
Sure, both can kill, but what are the odds one will do much more damage than the other?
Out of all of this I love the clip/magazine debate the most. I incorrectly call them both clips all the time…so I get it correct 50% of the time, right?

It is not difficult to build one, you can get aftermarket stuff that fit a Glock... I've seen 150 round chambers that have circular bottoms, they look a bit like the magazine for an old tommy gun... Let me see if I can find a link to an image of something similar...
While it would be a great tool to rain down lead and copper on White Supremacist terrorists, I'd prefer a scoped rifle and shoot them at a distance. Plus, three boxes of ammo in a single magazine might be handy on the range, but awkward to lug around. Rifles can have slings.

I'm guessing most of the "magazine" purists call their weapons "guns", not "rifles" or "pistols".

Yes, but there's limitations....despite having terrific results.

The Law of War Manual states that military necessity “justifies the use of all measures needed to defeat the enemy as quickly and efficiently as possible.” A plethora of research shows that expanding ammunition can, under some circumstances, be more efficient in incapacitating the enemy. More importantly, the principle of distinction, requiring “parties to a conflict to discriminate in conducting attacks against the enemy,” substantiates the lawfulness and utility of expanding ammunition in armed conflict.
Experience over the last decade in Iraq and Afghanistan, especially in urban environments, has shown that jacketed rounds can cause significant collateral damage to innocent civilian bystanders, either through ricochets or rounds that pass through the targeted body or even structures.

Heh. I've seen those for real. They are heavy and make handling the gun awkward. Fun idea though!

You obviously don't have any clue what the burst or automatic mode in a machine gun is for.
